  1. Halfdan Hvitbeinn

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Halfdan Whiteshanks Old Norse H lfdan hv tbeinn was a mythical petty king in Norway , described in the Ynglinga saga . The following description is based on the account in Ynglinga saga, written in the 1220s by Snorri Sturluson . The historicity of the kings described in that saga is generally not accepted by modern historians. He was the son of Olof Tr t lja of the House of Yngling . His father was sacrificed to Odin by the Sweden Swedish settlers in V rmland because of a famine. Some Swedes, however, realised that the famine was brought by overpopulation and not by the fact that the king had been neglecting his religious duties. Consequently, they resolved to cross the Ed Forest and settle in Norway and happened to end up in Soleyar where they killed king S lve and took Halfdan prisoner. The Swedish expatriates elected Halfdan king as he was the son of their old king, Olof. Halfdan subjugated all of Soleyar and took his army into Romerike and subjugated that province as well. Halfdan was to become a great king, who married sa, the daughter of king Eystein, the ruler of Oppland and Hedmark . They had two sons, Eystein Halfdansson and Gudr d . Halfdan conquered a large part of Hedemark , Toten , Hadeland and a part of Vestfold . When his brother Ingjald Olofsson died, he inherited V rmland . Halfdan died of old age in Toten and was transported to Vestfold where he was buried under a mound in Skiringssal .

  1. Halfdan the Mild

    Halfdan the Mild Old Norse H lfdan hinn mildi was the son of king Eystein Halfdansson , of the House of Yngling and he succeeded his father as king, according to Heimskringla . He was king of Romerike and Vestfold . He was said to be generous in gold but to starve his men with food. He was a great warrior who often pillaged and gathered great booty. His wife was Liv, the daughter of king Dag of Vestmar . Halfdan the Mild died of illness in his bed. He was succeeded by his son, Gudr d the Hunter . According to the historian Halvdan Koht , Halfdan may have been the one to win independence for Vestfold during the turbulent years of 813 14. The Frankish annals state that the kings of Hedeby had to solve an uprising in Vestfold at this time. According to Ynglingatal , Halfdan s people gained victory in this uprising, and Halfdan is thus the first independent ruler of Vestfold.
