2. Sigla for skalds
This is not currently part of the peer-reviewed material of the project. Do not cite as a research publication.
i. Use the list in Lexicon Poeticum. Where LP does not have the skald’s name, the siglum from the database should be used.
ii. In vols 5 and 8, verses are attributed to a ‘skald’ if the skald is named in the prose text, even if the skald is dead, 3 years old, a troll or a person in a dream. Inanimate ‘skalds’ (rocks, cloaks) or verses not attributed to named beings are listed as Anonymous, and Þulur are abbreviated as Þul.
