Skræling
Skræling (Old Norse and Icelandic: skrælingi, plural skrælingjar) is the name the Norse Greenlanders used for the indigenous peoples they encountered in North America and Greenland. In surviving sources, it is first applied to the Thule people, the proto-Inuit group with whom the Norse coexisted in Greenland after about the 13th century. In the sagas, it is also used for the peoples of the region known as Vinland whom the Norse encountered during their expeditions there in the early 11th century.
Etymology
The term is thought to have first been used by Ari Þorgilsson in his work Íslendingabók, also called The Book of the Icelanders, written well after the period in which Norse explorers made their first contacts with indigenous Americans. By the time these sources were recorded, skræling was the common term Norse Greenlanders used for the Thule people, the ancestors to the modern Inuit. The Thule first arrived in Greenland from the North American mainland in the 13th century and were thereafter in contact with the Greenlanders. The Greenlanders' Saga and the Saga of Erik the Red, which were written in the 13th century, use this same term for the people of the area known as Vinland whom the Norse met in the early 11th century. The word subsequently became well known, and has been used in the English language since the 18th century.

Why did Vikings never establish permanent settlements in America?
In this video I'm trying to answer the question why Vikings left America instead of establishing a permanent settlement. I'm not a historian but I'll quote my sources so that you can check for yourself if you're interested. As far as I can see there are 3 main reasons why the Vikings failed to colonize what they called Vinland: 1.) Their difference in technology compared to the natives was not high enough to compensate for their lack of numbers, and fighting threatened to wear them down. The presence of a substantial local population also made Vinland a lot less appealing than Iceland or Greenland. 2.) Norway at the time was not wealthy enough to provide the same support as Spain did in the 16th century 3.) The exploration did not enjoy backup by a centralized government, it was basica...

Skræling- Original Song by Ryan Dawson
A new original. "Skræling," is the name that Vikings gave to the Inuit people they found living in Greenland and North America. It is not used here in that context exactly. ------------------------------ Smile I don't love you for your lies I don't want you in disguise Like a jumper from the heights Dead On the split floor of the sea And the sulfur in me And the phosphorous bright Stray, Little skraeling, through woods Where the will-o-the-wisp And the marsh candles burn Into whispering domes From the trees, crushed in gloom Climbing into my room Little skraeling, come home Light Like the pinions of the dawn And the heat lingers on Till the morning is gone Wait Where the sea gutters green, Water pearling pristine, Where the shearwaters dream Stray, Little skraeling, through w...

3.) The exploration did not enjoy backup by a centralized government, it was basically just individuals making the decision to explore this new land. Which made internal conflict among the settlers quite devastating.

Smile
I don't love you for your lies
I don't want you in disguise
Like a jumper from the heights
Dead
On the split floor of the sea
And the sulfur in me
And the phosphorous bright
Stray,
Little skraeling, through woods
Where the will-o-the-wisp
And the marsh candles burn
Into whispering domes
From the trees, crushed in gloom
Climbing into my room
Little skraeling, come home
Light
Like the pinions of the dawn
And the heat lingers on
Till the morning is gone
Wait
Where the sea gutters green,
Water pearling pristine,
Where the shearwaters dream
Stray,
Little skraeling, through woods
Where the will-o-the-wisp
And the marsh candles burn
Into whispering domes
From the trees, crushed in gloom
Climbing into my room
Little skraeling, come home
