Note to StarkSt Vík 3VIII (Gautr 11)

[1] Herþjófr: According to an earlier passage of Gautr (Gautr 1900, 11), Herþjófr was the son of a certain Húnþjófr, King of Hordaland, who was in turn the son of Friðþjófr the Bold and Ingibjǫrg the Fair, who are the protagonists of another fornaldarsaga, Friðþjófs saga ins frœkna ‘The Saga of Friðþjófr the Bold’ (Frið). For a discussion of the possible relations between these two sagas and their genealogical information, see Gautr 1900, lxxxix-xcii.
