Story of the Ere-Dwellers (Eyrbyggja Saga)

The Eyrbyggja saga is one of the Icelanders' sagas. The name means the saga of the inhabitants of Eyrr, which is a farm on Snæfellsnes on Iceland. The name is slightly misleading as it deals also with the clans of Þórsnes and Alptafjörðr. The central character who should have given his name to the saga is Snorri Þorgrímsson or Snorri goði, as he is better known.
