Morkinskinna
Morkinskinna is an Old Norse kings' saga, relating the history of Norwegian kings from approximately 1025 to 1157. The saga was written in Iceland around 1220, and has been preserved in a manuscript from around 1275.
The name ''Morkinskinna'' means "mouldy parchment" and is originally the name of the manuscript book in which the saga has been preserved. The book itself, GKS〔Den gamle kongelige Samling.〕 1009 fol, is currently in the Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen.() It was brought to Denmark from Iceland by Þormóður Torfason (Tormod Torfæus) in 1662.
The saga was published in English in 2000 in a translation by Theodore M. Andersson and Kari Ellen Gade. The ''Íslenzk fornrit'' edition appeared in 2011.

The saga starts in 1025 or 1026 and in its received form, ends suddenly in 1157, after the death of King Sigurðr II. Originally, the work may have been longer, possibly continuing until 1177, when the narratives of ''Fagrskinna'' and ''Heimskringla'', which use ''Morkinskinna'' as one of their sources, end. Apart from giving the main saga, the text is lavishly interspersed with citations from skaldic verse (about 270 stanzas)〔For these texts, see (Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages ).〕 and includes a number of short Icelandic tales known as ''þættir''.〔On the nature and function of these ''þættir'' in ''Morkinskinna'', see Ármann Jakobsson, "The Amplified Saga."〕 The following is an overview of the chapters in ''Morkinskinna'', chronologically subdivided by the reigns of the kings of Norway:〔The following chapter headings are based on Andersson's and Gade's translation of the text.〕
