Erling Skjalgsson, by Large Norwegian encyclopedia History Norwegian and Nordic history Norway's history Norwegian history up to 1050.

Erling Skjalgsson was a Norwegian Herse and Landman . He belonged to a powerful western chieftain family, and lived himself at Sola on Jæren . According to the sagas, Erling married Olav Tryggvason 's sister Astrid ; in return, he and his family supported the king and gained great importance for Olav's rule in Norway.

Erling is said to have been lent all the land between the Sognefjord and Lindesnes ; on the other hand, according to Snorri , he refused to receive the title of earl and would only be called herse like his fathers. However, he is also called lendmann and was one of the first chiefs to be referred to by this ombudsman name.

Biography

Erling Skjalgsson accompanied King Olav (Tryggvason) on his train to Pomerania , but did not participate in the Battle of Svolder . During Earl Håkon's rule in Norway, he is said to have remained independent for a long time. He was called "Rygjakongen", the king of the Rygenes (the Rogalanders). After earl Eirik 's journey to England, Erling made peace with earl Svein , and fought for him against Olav Haraldsson (Olav the Holy) at Nesjar in 1016. After the defeat, Erling reconciled with King Olav and retained his powerful position in Western Norway, now as the king's lieutenant.

Despite the settlement, he never got on well with Olav Haraldsson, and after the murder of Erling's relative Asbjørn Selsbane, they became personal enemies. In 1027, Erling joined the Danish king Canute the Mighty and sent his two sons to England. In 1028 he was surprised by King Olav the Saint in Boknafjorden and cut down by one of the king's men.

Erling is portrayed as humane towards his subordinates and faithful to his friends, but proud and unwilling to bow to any superior.

Descendants

His daughter Ragnhild (or Astrid) was married to Torberg Arnesson , and their daughter Tora became the mother of King Olav Kyrre . Erling thus became the ancestor of the later Norwegian kings.

Through his daughter Geirtrud, married to Torberg's brother Arne, he became the ancestor of the Bjarkøy family (see also Arnmødling family). Erling's male descendants, his son Aslak and his descendants, lived as powerful chieftains on Sola for over 100 years after his death.
