 Norse legends and sagas
Historical Thread

The largest body of saga material comes from this people. In fact, the so-called Icelandic sagas are really Norse. Many of the sagas include Norway in the characters, scenes and plot.
If you have favorite legends and sagas that originated in Norway/Iceland, please post your thoughts and discussions here. Even those in the ante Viking period are welcome. Links to Internet sites where these stories can be read online are requested: please post them under this thread.
