Note to Steinn Óldr 7II

[2] í Kaupangi ‘in Trondheim’: Kaupangr was the earliest name of the city of Trondheim (see Gade 1998). S. Óláfr was first interred in the Church of S. Clement, but he was later moved to Kristkirken (see Notes to Anon Nkt 31 [All] and 35 [All]). Steinn seems to imply that S. Óláfr will use his holy powers to block any threatened take-over by a foreign ruler.
