Or that these ancient Americans rivaled their European counterparts in navigational skills several millennia before the Vikings? The Mystery of the Lost Red Paint People follows U.S., Canadian, and European scientists from the barrens of Labrador - where archaeologists uncover an ancient stone burial mound - to sites in the U.S., France, England, and Denmark, and to the vast fjords of northernmost Norway where monumental standing stones testify to links among seafaring cultures across immense distances.
