[edit] Grimur Kamban was not the first man on Faero Islands

He was the first "Landnåmmann", which means that he was the first viking on the islands. The term can be translated to "the first man to reach/claim the land", but man here doesn't mean the first human but rather the first viking or perhaps the first norweigian. The Irish had already lived on the islands for 200 years when Grimur found the them.
