Saga of the Men of Samon-River Dale (Laxdaela)

Laxdœla saga is the saga of the clan/family of Laxárdalur. It is one of the most important Icelanders' sagas, originally written in medieval Icelandic (a dialect of Old Norse); probably in western Iceland sometime around the year 1245 AD. It is noted for its mention of the first known Norseman in the Varangian Guard: the Icelander Bolli Bollason. The author is unknown, although some scholars believe through textual evidence that the author was probably a woman.
