[2] salbendingr (m.) ‘hall-rounder’: The first element of the cpd is salr m. ‘hall’ and the second is most likely a derivation of the weak verb benda ‘bend’, probably with a passive meaning (-bendingr ‘bent one’, perhaps referring to the shield-boss and used as pars pro toto for ‘shield’). According to Meissner 9, this heiti refers to shields placed around the walls inside ancient halls (cf. also SnE 1998, II, 381). See also þrunginsalr in l. 1 above. This heiti is not attested elsewhere.
