How different would life be had the Vikings settled Plymouth 600 years before the Pilgrims?

I thought there was evidence the Vikings did arrive, stayed awhile then left.

The Vikings got around, including constructing buildings in North America, and even back then, 1000 years ago, wondering who’d built the earlier structures. The Mystery Hill (now called “America’s Stonehenge”) structures are at least 4000 years old, meaning that they weren’t built as “colonial root cellars”, regardless of what they were (much) later used for. :’)

They got at least as far as L’anse Aux Meadows, Newfoundland around 550 years before the Pilgrims.

Somewhere, someone is being taught that the Africans showed them how to do it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have happened.
