Vikings generally did a lot of trading and in some cases just kinda started to focus on trade instead of raiding taking advantage of the width and breadth of the Norse world. It wouldn't be impossible for goods from North America to be sold in a Syrian market, though I don't know if that did happen but we have found Norse Chainmail in an Inuit grave cache.
