Oddi Helgason
Oddi Helgason (c.1070/80 – c. 1140/50), called Star Oddi (Icelandic: ''Stjörnu-Oddi''), worked as a farm laborer in the 12th century in northern Iceland and achieved remarkable astronomical knowledge through careful observations. Oddi resumed his work in the ''Oddatala'' where he stated the position of the sun for every day of the year in Iceland and calculated the date of summer and winter solstices and their direction giving the sailing Vikings a useful source of orientation, since no navigational instruments were used at that time.
==The Oddatala==
The Oddatala (Icelandic for: ''Oddi's tale'') is the only known written work of Star Oddi. In print, the text is only a couple of pages long divided into three chapters.
The first chapter presents the exact date and time of summer and winter solstices with relation to the leap years. In the second chapter Oddi specifies the sun's position over the year and in the last chapter the direction of dawn and nightfall through the year is described.〔http://www.raunvis.hi.is/~thv/es.html Source from University of Iceland〕
