Skræling is the name the Norse Greenlanders use for the indigenous peoples they encountered in North America and Greenland.

In surviving sources, it is first applied to the Thule people, the Eskimo group with whom the Norse coexisted in Greenland after about the 13th century.

In the sagas, it is also used for the peoples of the region known as Vinland (probably Newfoundland) whom the Norse encounter during their expeditions there in the early 11th century.
