[2, 3] austr at Egða fjǫllum; gjaldkera ‘in the east beside Agder’s mountains; steward’: Ch. 58 of Orkn notes that, in his youth, Kali spent time with his kinsman Sǫlmundr, who was the gjaldkeri in Tønsberg and a chieftain with a large following and an estate in Aust-Agder. Fritzner: gjaldkeri defines the term as Kongens Ombudsmand i Kjøbstaden, som der havde at opkræve hans Indtægter, holde tilbørlig Orden og sørge for Retspleien ‘the king’s official in the trading-centre, who was there to collect his income, keep appropriate order and administer justice’.
