“Qvi negativam tuentur ſententiam, hoc præſertim nituntur argumento, qvod Thule antiqviſſimis ſcriptoribus nota fuerit; Islandia vero⟳ a Norvegis, ſeculo demum nono inventa ſit & habitari cœperit.”

Those who uphold the negative opinion rely especially on this argument: that Thule was known to the most ancient writers, whereas Iceland was finally discovered and began to be inhabited by Norwegians only in the ninth century.
