The name is also used in the saga to denote the Goths . The form Tervingi was actually recorded by Roman sources in the 4th century. Svafrlami was the king of Gardariki , and Odin s grandson. He managed to trap the norse dwarves Dwarves Dvalinn and Durin Norse mythology Durin when they had left the rock where they dwelt. Then he forced them to forge a sword with a golden hilt that would never miss a stroke, would never rust and would cut through stone and iron as easily as through clothes. The Dwarves made the sword, and it shone and gleamed like fire. However, in revenge they cursed it so that it would kill a man every time it was drawn and that it would be the cause of three great evils. They finally cursed it so that it would also kill Svafrlami himself. When Svafrlami heard the curses he tried to slay Dvalin, but the Dwarf disappeared into the rock and the sword was driven deep into it, though missing its victim. Svafrlami was killed by the berserker Arngrim who took the sword in his turn. After Arngrim, it was worn by Angantyr and his eleven brothers. They were all slain at Sams , by the Swedish champion Hjalmar , and his Norwegian sworn brother Orvar Odd but Hjalmar , being wounded by Tyrfing, has only time to sing his death song before he dies, and asks Orvar Odd to bring his body to Yngvi and Alf Hervarar Saga and the Saga of Orvar Odd Ingeborg, daughter of Yngvi at Gamla Uppsala Uppsala .

Unreferenced date December 2009 The W gmundings were a prominent probably Suiones Swedish clan an tt , see Norse clans in Beowulf . A name such as W gmunding meant belongs to W gmund , i.e. they were the descendants of a man named W gmund. This was the normal way of naming a Germanic clan see e.g. Sigurd the V lsung descendant of king V lsung , Folkung descendants of Folke and Yngling descendants of Yngvi Freyr . Members W gmund the ancestor of the clan lfhere seems to have been a distinguished member of the clan as Wiglaf is described as his kinsman Ecg eow joined the Danes and the Geats as he was banished for slaying a man from another clan Beowulf character Beowulf son of Ecg eow and the hero of the epic by his name Weohstan Swedish champion and slayer of his fugitive countryman prince Eanmund Wiglaf the last of the W gmundings and son of Weohstan. He fought with Beowulf against the dragon The story of this clan in Beowulf is that Ecg eow slew a man, Hea olaf , from another clan, the Wulfings probably the rulers of the less known East Geats . As the W gmundings would not or could not pay the expected wergild , Ecgtheow was banished and sought refuge among the Daner Danes . The Danish king Hrothgar paid the wergild and had Ecg eow swear an oath. Later, Ecg eow served the Geats and distinguished himself enough to marry the Geatish king Hre el s daughter, with whom he had the son Beowulf. During the Swedish Geatish wars , Ecg eow s close relative, Weohstan, fought on the Swedish side for Onela , and killed Onela s nephew Eanmund . The fact that these characters are described as W gmundings explains why the Swedish warrior Wiglaf became the companion of Beowulf although his father had fought against the Geats. Since Ecg eow, Beowulf s father, was a close relative of Weohstan, Wiglaf s father, it is not surprising that Wiglaf after his father s death joined his relative Beowulf in G taland Geatland , and that Beowulf assumed responsibility for the young Swede.

Yngwin Yngve was, according to Gesta Danorum , a king in G taland , who was a close friend to one of the Danish kings named Halfdan . This Danish king had no sons, so he left his treasures and his kingdom to Yngwin. Yngwin then moved to Denmark and ruled the kingdom for a while, until he was slain by a competitor to the throne by the name Ragnald. Yngwin had a son named Siwald , who became king in Denmark after him. Then Siwald s son Sigar took the throne after him. He had three sons. One of his sons was Alf, who was a Viking. On a raiding tour to Finland, he met Alfhild, the daughter of king Synardus Siward in G taland. Alfhild had her own fleet of Viking ships, some of them manned with maidens. Alf and Alfhild later married, and they had a daughter named Gurid . In a war fought against a revolting Danish Viking clan, Sigar, Alf and his brothers were killed, while defending their dear Danish subjects. In the end of the war, Alf s comrade Borgar arrived with fresh chivalry from Scania , and slew all the enemies. But without a king, the country now fell apart, and chieftains took control of the different parts. Only Alf s daughter Gurid had survived of the royal family. She later married one of Borgar s sons, Halfdan, and they had a son named Harald who became the new king. Harald restored the Danish kingdom to its former glory and unity. Supposed timeframe According to the details in the saga, this would have taken place in the 5th century. If true, this would explain much of the warm friendship between Hrothgar , king of Denmark, and Hrethel , king of G taland, depicted in Beowulf , in the beginning of the next century. According to Saxo Grammaticus in Gesta Danorum, the beforementioned Harald was the famous Harald Wartooth . But that must be a mistake by Saxo, as that Harald lived several hundred years later.

He was the tallest of the twelve sons of the berserker Arngrim , and he and his eleven brothers spread fear and destruction through the North. One Yule , they were back home on Bolms when the next eldest son Hj rvard , swore that he would win Ingeborg , the daughter of Yngvi and Alf Yngve , the king of Sweden . The twelve brothers departed for Gamla Uppsala Uppsala and Hjorvard proposed to Ingeborg. However then Hjalmar , one of the Swedish king s champions, stepped forth and claimed he deserved the princess rather than a berserker. The Swedish king, who feared opposing twelve uncontrollable and infamous berserkers in his hall , suggested that Ingeborg herself should decide. Naturally, she chose Hjalmar, and Hjorvard was besides himself with rage. He challenged Hjalmar to a duel on Sams and declared that Hjalmar would lose his honour if he did not turn up. When the twelve brothers arrived on Sams , they started to go berserk. They bit their shields, screamed loud and coarsely and let themselves loose on Hjalmar and Orvar Odd s crewmen who were cut to pieces.

Gaut was one of Odin s names and the name forms are thought to be echoes of an ancient ancestry tradition among Germanic tribes , such as that of Yngvi , Freyr and the Ingaevones . Moreover, the names Geats , Goths and Gutes are closely related tribal names. Geat was originally Proto Germanic lang gem Gautoz , and Goths and Gutes were lang gem Gutaniz .

The Prologue is the first section of four books of the Prose Edda , and consists of a Euhemerus euhemerized account of the origins of Norse mythology the Norse gods are described descended from the Trojans . The genealogy presented by Snorri begins with Priam . Priam s daughter Tr n married king M n n or Menn n. Their son was Tr r, or Thor , who was fostered in Thrace . Thor slew his foster father and married Sibil , identified with Sif . The line of descendants of Thor and Sif is given as follows L ri i, Einridi, Vingethor, Vingener, M da, Magi, Seskef , Bedvig, Athra, termann, Herem d, Skjaldun, Bj f , J t, Gud lfr, Finn, Fr allaf Finally, the son of Fr allaf was V den, whom we call Odin , who came to Germany Saxland and established the royal lines there. Odin had second sight, and his wife also and from their foreknowledge he found that his name should be exalted in the northern part of the world and glorified above the fame of all other kings. Therefore, he made ready to journey out of Turkland ... They made no end to their journeying till they were come north into the land that is now called Saxland In Saxland, Odin s sons Vegdeg , Beldeg Baldr and Sigi founded the ruling houses of the Franks , from whom descended the V lsungs .

After this, Odin went on to Sweden , where there was a king named Gylfi . Gylfi welcomed Odin and his train as men of Asia, who were called sir . In Sweden, Odin founded a city called Sigt n as a Trojan colony. Later, Odin s son Yngvi became king of Sweden, founding the Yngling dynasty.
