From Scotland Sigurðr proceeded to Rome, Palestine and the River Jordan, visiting holy shrines.
See Note to st. 3 [All]. Hkr (ÍF 28, 297) places the pilgrimage before Sigurðr’s stays in Orkney and Scotland, whereas Orkn (ÍF 34, 217) agrees with Mork in describing his progress from Scotland to Rome.
