Valland In Norse legend Valland is the name the part of Europe which is inhabited by Celtic and Romance speaking peoples.〔(The entry ''Valnöt'' in ''Svensk etymologisk ordbok'' by Elof Hellquist (1922). )〕 The element ''Val-'' is derived from Walha, a Germanic root meaning "foreigner", usually applied to the Celtic and Italic inhabitants of Europe. ==Mythological context== In the genealogy section of ''Flateyjarbók'', there are two kings of Valland named Auði and Kjárr, who may have been a late reflection of Julius Caesar and the Roman Emperors in Norse mythology:〔(Anderson, Carl Edlund. (1999). ''Formation and Resolution of Ideological Contrast in the Early History of Scandinavia''. Ph.D. thesis, University of Cambridge, Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse & Celtic (Faculty of English). p. 44. )〕 Kjárr and his daughter Ölrún also appear in the ''Völundarkviða'', where she is a Valkyrie who marries the hero Egil: It is mentioned in Illuga saga Gríðarfóstra that Hringr, the king of Denmark and son of Sköld dagsson, was married to Sigrid, who was the daughter of Vilhálm - or William - king of Valland.〔 〕
