Adelsteinson, S., and B. Blumenberg. Possible Norse origin for two Northeastern USA cat populations. Zeitschrift für Tierzüchtung und Züchtungsbiologie 100 (1983): 161-174. They consider a possible Norse/Viking origin for two northeastern U.S. cat populations. These clearly demonstrate similarity to Scandinavian felines on the basis of genetic distance calculations reinforced by discriminant analysis. The possible biogeographic reality of such mathematical relationships is discussed in reference to genetic drift and available historical and ethnographic information.

Notes that conventional anthropologists have failed the public by ignoring such materials as these authors present. "I recommend that the experts in their own fields at least give these books a serious look." Some data in the books do raise questions whether standard interpretations manage them adequately. Yet there is so much stylistic fluff and neglect of critical analysis and hard evidence in the volumes, that he clearly does not expect much from the recommended examination.
