Sandnæs, often anglicized as Sandnes, was the largest Norse farmstead in the Western Settlement of medieval Greenland. Similarly with the Norwegian city of Sandnes, its name meant "Sandy Headland" in Old Norse. It was settled around AD 1000 and abandoned by the late 14th century. It was located at the site known as Kilaarsarfik today, at the head of the south of modern Nuuk's peninsula.

  • Sandnæs, era la granja nòrdica més gran de l'Assentament Occidental de la Groenlàndia medieval. De la mateixa manera que la ciutat noruega de Sandnes, el seu nom volia dir "cap sorrós" en nòrdic antic. Es va establir al voltant de l'any 1000 i fou abandonada a finals del segle XIV- Era situada al lloc conegut com a Kilaarsarfik sctualment, i el cap del al sud de l'actual península de Nuuk. La granja estava ben situada i posseïa un gran pasturatge que permetia als seus propietaris mantenir amb èxit el bestiar, en comparació amb les cabres i ovelles a les altres granges de l'Assentament Occidental. També va incloure l'església de la zona. Tanmateix, les condicions a tota l'existència del lloc eren aparentment dures. El lloc ha estat excavat, demostrant, entre altres coses, que els vikings continuaren comercialitzant amb el continent americà després del fracassat intent de colonització de Leif Ericson. Ha estat trobada una punta de fletxa similar a les de la dels nadius americans a Labrador al cementiri de Sandnæs. També hi ha evidències d'extracció de ferro al lloc. (ca)

Similarly with the Norwegian city of Sandnes, its name meant "Sandy Headland" in Old Norse. It was settled around AD 1000 and abandoned by the late 14th century. It was located at the site known as Kilaarsarfik today, at the head of the south of modern Nuuk's peninsula. The farm was well-placed and possessed a large pasturage enabling its proprietors to successfully raise cattle, compared with goats and sheep at the other Western Settlement farms. It also included the area's church. However, the conditions throughout the site's existence were apparently filthy. The site has been excavated, proving among other things that the Vikings continued to trade with the American mainland after Leif Ericson's failed colonization attempt. An arrowhead likely from the of Native Americans in Labrador has been found in the graveyard at Sandnæs. There is also evidence of iron extraction at the site. (en)
