Charters of Cumbwell Proiry. PART Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 8 1872 271 CHARTERS OF OUMBWELL PRIORY. (Continuedfrom Vol. VI. p. 250.) LITE. [Date, prob. circa 1180.'] EUSTACE DE MEREWORTE grants a rent-charge of five shillings in MEREWORTH, and another of twelve-pence, to the Abbey of Oufiibwell. The former is the grant ivhich the preceding Charter confirms, quod ego EUSTACHITTS concessi domui de Combwell et fratribus ibidem deo MAREWB v solidos et xii denarios aput clivum annuatim pro animabus solidos ad Pentecostem et EADWAROTS films KECH ad festura. Sancti Miehaelis ROBERTAS filius SEDEHEN patris et efc feminarum mearum et pro me ipso. .Ex his autem prefatis v solidis EGELHTS 1 At least as early as this, by evidence of the handwriting. I have placed this Charter after the preceding, though anterior in date, as being in its mutilated condition chiefly intelligible by the light of the earlier one. Very neatly half of the parchment is torn away and lost, the right hand portion, including fortunately just so much as to preserve the seal, being all that remains. We gather from the two Charters that Eustace de Mereworth had two sons, Stephen and Eobert, the former of whom, as the eldest, he calls in his own Charter his " heir," in spite of the maxim—" nemo est hasres viventis." But Stephen would appear to have predeceased his father, and Roger, the younger, to have been eventually the heir,. See also the Fine between this Boger and the Prior of Leeds in 1814, concerning the advowaon of Mereworth Church. Arch. Cant, vi. p. 880. The animal represented on the seal of Eustace is probably intended for the same as that on the seal of his son appended to Charter • LII. —apparently a mule. (<z) Gawt. (A) G-eat.

  • The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A)
    The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A) David K. Faux The goal of the present work is to assemble widely scattered facts to accurately record the story of one of Europe’s most enigmatic people of the early historic era – the Cimbri. To meet this goal, the present study will trace the antecedents and descendants of the Cimbri, who reside or resided in the northern part of the Jutland Peninsula, in what is today known as the County of Himmerland, Denmark. It is likely that the name Cimbri came to represent the peoples of the Cimbric Peninsula and nearby islands, now called Jutland, Fyn and so on. Very early (3rd Century BC) Greek sources also make note of the Teutones, a tribe closely associated with the Cimbri, however their specific place of residence is not precisely located. It is not until the 1st Century AD that Roman commentators describe other tribes residing within this geographical area. At some point before 500 AD, there is no further mention of the Cimbri or Teutones in any source, and the Cimbric Cheronese (Peninsula) is then called Jutland. As we shall see, problems in accomplishing this task are somewhat daunting. For example, there are inconsistencies in datasources, and highly conflicting viewpoints expressed by those interpreting the data. These difficulties can be addressed by a careful sifting of diverse material that has come to light largely due to the storehouse of primary source information accessed by the power of the Internet. Historical, archaeological and genetic data will be integrated to lift the veil that has to date obscured the story of the Cimbri, or Cimbrian, peoples.

  • Finland During the First Millenium
    FINLAND DURING THE FIRST MILLENIUM 1st millennia AD Jouko Pesonen The old sagas contain stories from the ancient times, as in here, in which I have collected, during the last twenty years, pieces of data about the Viking kings and mostly Finnish and Danish Vikings. First they conducted pillaging, later the pillaging transformed into trading and migration over the vast oceans. The sagas are often Norwegian or Dutch. One of the most known scribe of the sagas was Snorri Sturluson, Icelandic priest. Many recordings by eager family researchers were employed among the source materials and used for the interpretations of the studies. One can not trust on only one recording, especially a Russian one. Plenty of insight and interpretation were needed. I can not really base or pinpoint my perception in some particular earlier study. Simply small pieces and bits were collected together for THE HISTORY OF THE OLD FINNISH LION NATION AND HER VIKING KINGS- SUMMARY. Translated: M.

  • Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga
    Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga : fiction or history? Rausing, Gad Fornvännen 80, 163-178 http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/fornvannen/html/1985_163 Ingår i: samla.raa.se Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga Fiction or History? By Gad Rausing Rausing, G. 1985. Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga. Fiction or History? Fornvännen 80. Stockholm. Can Beowulf be used to test the value of the earliest Norse sagas as historical sources? Since at least one, and possibly two, of the persons and of the events mentioned in Beowulf can be corroborated and dated with the help of contem­ porary chronicles we must, until the opposite can be proved, accept the rest of the accounts as historical. Since several persons who figure in Beowulf are also mentioned in other, independent sagas, Ynglingatal, the Ynglinga Saga and Widsid, we must assume them to be historical and, if so, also the rest of the east of these sagas. The geographical notices in Beowulf also appear to fit reality and the conclusions appear to be confirmed by the distribution of the archaeological material. Thus, those modern historians who have denied the historical value of the sagas appear to bc wrong, since they have not taken into account all the material available. Beowulf should be taken as "history" and so should all the sagas with the same east, Ynglingatal, the Ynglinga Saga och the Sköldunga Saga. Gad Rausing, 78 Addison road, London W14 8ED, England. Our convcntional and arbitrary division of in Viking-age Seandinavia, where new fami­ the past into "prehistoric" and "historie" lies came into power, apparently in the up­ times is misleading, there being no clear bor- heavals during the "missionary period", derline between the two.

  • Hversu Noregr Byggðist How Norway Was Settled Translated by © 2011 George L
    Flateyjarbók Hversu Noregr Byggðist How Norway was Settled Translated by © 2011 George L. Hardman 1. Frá niðjum Fornjóts - Of Fornjót's Ancestors Now we shall speak of how Norway was founded in the beginning, how the line of kings began there or in other lands, and why they are called Skjöldungs, Buđlungs, Bragnings, Öđlings, Völsungs or Niflungs, from which the lines of kings come. There was a man named Fornjót. He had three sons; one was named Hlér(Ægir – a szerk.), the second Logi, and the third Kári. He ruled the winds, but Logi ruled fire, and Hlér ruled the sea. Kári was the father of Jökul, the Glacier, father of King Snae, Snow. The sons of King Snae were Þorri, Fönn, Drífa and Mjöll. Þorri was a wonderful king. He ruled Gotland, Kaenland, and Finland. He celebrated Kaens so that snow was made and travel on skis was good. That is their beginning. The celebration is held in the middle of winter, and from that time on was called the month of Þorri. King Þorri had three children. His sons were called Nórr and Górr, and his daughter Gói. Gói vanished, and Þorri made a sacrifice a month later than he was accustomed to celebrate, and since then the month that begins then was called Gói. Nórr and Górr searched for their sister. Nórr had a great battle west of Kjölu, and the kings fell before him, who were named: Véi and Vei, Hunding, and Heming, and Nórr took control of that land all the way to the sea.

  • Granholm Genealogy
    GRANHOLM GENEALOGY NORSE ROYAL ANCESTRY (Norwegian and Finnish) INTRODUCTION The Norse or Scaninavian mythology has many deities, gods and goddesses. This part begins by listing Norwegian and Finnish ancestors, Njörd and Fjornot. Where the name in the lists are highlighted I have included a biography. There is no clear direct lineage from them, they are intermixed with the Swedish and Danish mythologies. In those separate booklets have I included the information about Odin and others near to him. Here I have shown our lineage from other mythical figures.These lineages do not start from a single person. The lists that follows converge different lineages which all lead to us. So me of the persons are referred to as Kings of Finland. As in all listings of mytological/historical persons there is a gray area where the reader may use his or her imagination in deciding where the transition between myth and history is. But a fact is that somebody was there and had some influence, for instance how a name was established serves as some kind of proof of their existence. See the quotation below: Njörðr's name appears in various place names in Scandinavia, such as Nærdhæwi (now Nalavi), Njærdhavi (now Mjärdevi), Nærdhælunda (now Närlunda), Nierdhatunum (now Närtuna) in Sweden, Njarðvík in eastern Iceland, Njarðarlög and Njarðey (now Nærøy) in Norway. Njörðr's name appears in a word for sponge; Njarðarvöttr. Additionally, in Old Icelandic translations of Classical mythology the Roman god Saturn's name is glossed as "Njörðr". King Thorri of Finland, a descendant of the first king Fornjot, is the 41st great grandfather.

I Åres bevarade yngre Islendingabök uppräknas Agne i den där förekommande stamtavlan över Ynglingaätlen, men intet namnes här om honom. Både Snorres och Åres förnämsta källa har varit den fornnorska dikten Ynglingatal, författad kort efter 800-talets mitt av Tiodolf från Hvin. Snorre meddelar utdrag av denna dikt i Ynglingasagan. Snorres berättelse är av följande lydelse1: Agni hét sonr Dags, er konungr var eptir hann, rikr maör ok ägaetr, hermaör mikill, atg0rvimaör mikill um alla hluti. tat var eitt surnar, er Agni konungr för meö her sinn ä Finnland, gekk bar UPP °k herjaöi.

  • Thesis Rough Draft
    1 Abstract By approaching Landnámabók as an origin myth, a political myth, and a religious myth, this work explores and articulates the specific cosmological principles, social and political constructions, and religious constructions that Landnámabók would have absorbed from, added to, or reinforced in the medieval Icelandic worldview with which it was interacting. Although it was intended to be a chronicle, Landnámabók is also comparable to myth, be- cause it explains the origins of the local world of the Icelanders, and in doing so, presents a sweeping and overarching conception of this world. 2 Introducing Landnámabók Landnámabók is an Old Norse-Icelandic text which exists in five versions, three of which are from the middle ages. Presumably, the earliest of these is Sturlubók, so named because it was compiled by Sturla Þórðarson, who lived between approximately 1214 and 1284 (Hermann Pálsson and Edwards 4). “A vellum MS of it existed down to the eighteenth century, when it was destroyed in the fire of Copenhagen in 1728. But before it left Iceland it had been copied by Rev. Jón Erlendsson of Villingaholt, and it is his copy (AM 107 fol.) which is our chief source for Sturlubók” (Hermann Pálsson and Edwards 3). Jón Erlends- son also copied the Hauksbók version, which was compiled by Haukr Erlendsson (d. 1331). In addition to Jón’s copy, fourteen leaves of Haukr’s original copy survive in AM 371, 4to (Hermann Pálsson and Edwards 4). Finally, there are a couple of leaves of an early fifteenth century version known as Melabók (AM 445 b 4to) (Hermann Pálsson and Edwards 4).1 There is a fair amount of overlap between material from Landnámabók and epi- sodes in the Íslendingasögur.
