Kári Sölmundarson : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kári Sölmundarson
Kári Sölmundarson was a Hebridean viking and soldier of fortune who lived in the late tenth and early eleventh centuries. He is a major character in ''Njál's Saga''. Kári was the son of Solmund, who was the son of Thorbjorn "Jarl's Champion," an Icelander exiled before the establishment of the Althing for murder.〔''Grettir's Saga'' § 10. ''Grettir's Saga'' refers to Kári as "Kári the Singed," a reference to his escape from the burning of Bergthorshvoll.〕 ==Early career== It is unknown where Kári was born (though possibly Iceland). He was, however, a hirdman of Sigurd the Stout, jarl of Orkney. He came to the rescue of Helgi Njálsson and Grim Njálsson, the sons of Njáll Þorgeirsson of Bergthorshvoll, Iceland in the 990's. The brothers, who were on a trading expedition to the British Isles, had come under attack by the vikings Snaekolf and Grjotgard Mordansson. After killing the raiders, Kári brought the Njálssons to Orkney, where they stayed for a time at Jarl Sigurd's court and fought in his campaigns in northern and central Scotland.〔''Njál's Saga'' §§ 83-86.〕 Kári came to the aid of Helgi and Grim again when the brothers were arrested by Hakon Jarl of Norway for indirectly aiding in the escape of their fellow Icelander, Thrain Sigfusson.〔''Njál's Saga'' §§ 88-89.〕
