Irish/Gaelic Monks in Iceland, The Faroe Islands and the Scottish Isles

We all know the Norse Vikings discovered Iceland in the middle of the 9th century, but how many of you knew that they were not the first to set foot on earth's 18th largest island? Irish or Scots-Irish monks are likely to have resided on Iceland as hermits seeking to follow in the footsteps of the Desert Fathers. They were the "Papar" referenced by the Icelandic Sagas Íslendingabók and Landnámabók, and though they were chased out by their new neighbours, their legacy can still be found by those who look.

An extra little bit of info on the Irish in Iceland following the newest research and archaeology:
