Nanortalik, Greenland was one of the ports of call on our Holland America round-trip TransAtlantic cruise, and is an Inuit settlement. Anyway, as I viewed the landscape, I could appreciate how that landscape had been sculptured over hundreds of thousands of years......... by the movement of glacial ice........ice movement that essentially stripped away any pre-existing soil, ice movement that altered V-shaped valleys into U-shaped valleys, leaving a rounded landscape, with sharp, angular peaks and ridges where the rock was not covered by glaciers. Also, for those readers who may have an interest, the exposed rocks at Nanortalik are part of the geologic trend we in the USA refer to as the Appalachian Mountains. I was also fortunate to meet and talk with a grade school class, on a "field trip" from their school about 1/2 mile away. Some of the kids asked why I was looking at the rocks.....so we talked.

Just below the statue of Erik the red, and not far from the pier, about 10 -15 minutes walk, there are ruins of the ancient Viking settlement. This reconstructed small church is made of wood and turf. There is also an old Inuit hut just beside this church, and what remains of a church plan above this one.
