I agree, especially for Americans. Even though I'm in a relatively homogenous part of the USA, I'm a mix of northern european populations. Mostly Danish, northern German and Norwegian.

Hrafna-Flóki's Vilgeršarson's Expedition
excerpt:
located in Vatnsdalur (VDP) near Flóki's first settlement Vatnsfjöršur in the Westfjords of Iceland and date to this early settlement period. A wealthy Nordic Viking woman (VDP-A5) was buried with her boat and later six more individuals were buried alongside her. The others were typical Icelandic males being part Norse and part Gaelic. The gravesite included a silver Thor's hammer, jewelry, 30 beads, a knife and a near eastern coin dating from as early as 870 AD. The items seen here from this boat burial can be seen in the National Museum in Reykjavik. Not far to the south in Öndveršarnes the last sample shown DKS-A1 was found buried with a sword, a spearhead, a knife, shield-boss, bone-pin and fragments of iron.
