Encyclopedia > King of Nerike

The Icelandic sagas relate of a number of kings of Nerike who ruled during the mythological past of Scandinavia.


They were:

  • Nidud from the saga of Weyland the smith.
  • Olof the Sharp-sighted from Heimskringla whose grand-daughter married Ingjald ill-ruler of the House of Yngling.
  • Sporsnjall (in Heimskringla) who was invited by Ingjald to a banquet only to be burnt to death inside Ingjald's hall with a number of other kings.
  • Olof Trätälja (in Heimskringla), the son of Ingjald who made Nerike his temporary kingdom before being driven away to Wermelandia.
