According to a report that has been making its way around the Internet since August 2015, archaeologists working in Western Australia have unearthed the remains of an 11th century Viking settlement. The message claims that foundations of three large buildings and a number of artefacts discovered at a location near Derby were almost certainly the remains of a Viking colony.<\/p>\n

The report features a photograph of the building foundations.<\/p>\n

However, the claims in the message are utter nonsense. No Viking settlement has been discovered in Australia. The \u00a0report<\/a> \u00a0is a work of fiction first published by the notorious fake-news website World News Daily Report (WNDR). Nothing published on the site should be taken seriously. \u00a0<\/p>\n
