NOTES
pp. XI—XII. A more detailed examination of the manuscript-rela-
tions would take us too far afield; the information given in the
edition is sometimes insufficient and sometimes misleading. Cf.
above, Introduction, ch. III no. 17.
1 oo17 D. Chytræus: See D. Chytræi Chorographica
orbis arctoi, Rost. 1591, fol. B 6v.
1 oo26 Mappa Rumoldi Mercatoris: Gerardus Mercator: At-
lantis pars altera, Duysburgi 1595 (edited by Rumoldus Merca-
tor), pi. B (Evropa; the map signed by Rumoldus Mercator) ;
on the land north of the Gulf of Bothnia stands “Doms haff”.
1 oo32—10225 See BarSar saga Snæfellsåss, pp. 1—9.
1011 Flamgerdam: The edition has FlaumgerSr, but Flam-
e.g. in AM 486 4to; the reading probably comes from Vatns-
hyrna.
10121-37 AJ’s own disquisition, which was perhaps occasioned
by his partiality for Olaf Tryggvason and his dislike of St. Olaf.
1023 Tolonis: FIrålfs BarSar saga, p. 3.
1028 Gudrida: GuSrun BarSar saga 1. c.
10210 Gudruna: GeirrlSr BarSar saga 1. c.; possibly the name
given in the preceding note has been confused with this one.
10214 Thorchillus Ruf fus: Forkeli RauSfeldsson BarSar saga,
P-4-
10215 Skialffa: Skjalpta BarSar saga, p. 4; written skialfa in
AM 486 4to but with a t added above the line.
10226 vide nostram Grønlandiam: See II 238—40. The words
‘De — Grønlandiam’ are deleted in the corrected copy.
10 2 26-36 See BarSar saga, pp. 24-45.
1031-5 See ibid. p. 24.
1037—io43S From FårSar saga hreSu. Vatnshyrna is the basis
of the text, as is apparent at once from 1037-8 Cetillus Cogno-
mento Haurdakare, cf. the Vatnshyrna-fragment of FårSar saga
(BarSar saga etc., 1860, p. 93), where the other version (edn.
1848, p. 3) has only HprSa-Kari and says nothing of his victory
over three kings. Cf. above, Introduction, ch. III no. 32.
10318 Sextus: Octavus would be more correct, see BarSar saga
etc., p. 93.
10412 XL virorum (vivorum is a misprint) : This probably re-
fers to the battie spoken of in ForSar saga, 1848, pp. 19-20, but
