Sigurd Hlodvirsson : ウィキペディア英語版
Sigurd the Stout

Sigurd Hlodvirsson (circa 960 – 23 April 1014), popularly known as Sigurd the Stout from the Old Norse ''Sigurðr digri'',〔Thomson (2008) p. 59〕 was an Earl of Orkney. The main sources for his life are the Norse Sagas, which were first written down some two centuries or more after his death. These engaging stories must therefore be treated with caution rather than as reliable historical documents.〔Woolf (2007) pp. 277–85〕
Sigurd was the son of Hlodvir Thorfinnson and (according to the Norse sagas) a direct descendent of Torf-Einarr Rognvaldson. Sigurd's tenure as earl was apparently free of the kin-strife that beset some other incumbents of this title and he was able to pursue his military ambitions over a wide area. He also held lands in the north of mainland Scotland and in the ''Sudrøyar'', and he may have been instrumental in the defeat of Gofraid mac Arailt, King of the Isles. The ''Annals of Ulster'' record his death at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014, the earliest known reference to the earldom of Orkney.
The saga tales draw attention to Sigurd's conversion to Christianity and his use of a totemic raven banner, a symbol of the Norse God Odin. This ambiguous theme and the lack of detailed contemporary records of his life have led to a variety of interpretations of the saga material by modern scholars.
==Sources==
The sources for Sigurd's life are almost exclusively Norse sagas, none of which were written down at the time of the events they record. The ''Orkneyinga Saga'' was first compiled in Iceland in the early 13th century and much of the information it contains is "hard to corroborate".〔Woolf (2007) p. 242〕 Sigurd also appears briefly in ''St Olaf's Saga'' as incorporated into the ''Heimskringla'' and in the ''Eyrbyggja Saga''. There are various tales about his exploits in the more fanciful ''Njal's Saga'' as well as the ''Saga of Gunnlaugr Serpent-Tongue'', ''Thorstein Sidu-Hallsson's Saga'', the ''Vatnsdæla Saga'' and in the tale of "Helgi and Wolf" in the ''Flateyjarbók.〔Muir (2005) p. 28〕〔Thomson (2008) p. 66〕
