From the page: "In the summer of 2002, an interim report was released by archaeologists working at Reykholt (left), one of the farms belonging to Snorri Sturluson in the 13th century. Stone structures were found underneath the longhouse which have been tentatively interpreted as an underground heating system fed with steam from a nearby hot spring. If the interpretation is confirmed, and if similar structures are found in other locations, it could significantly change our ideas about daily life in a medieval longhouse."

Allright,i'm a history geek so what..did you know.To understand our modern idiots like George W.B(you know, that guy in America)we need to understand the past and learn from it.
