Research Notes

  • Íslendingabók: Riddari á Urðum í Svarfaðardal. Þess hefur verið getið til að faðir hans hafi verið Arnfinnur Sturluson, Hálfdánarsonar, en engin haldbær rök eru fyrir því. Jón Sigurðsson telur hugsanlegt að Eyjólfur hafi verið Ásgrímsson, Þorsteinssonar.
    • "Knight (Riddari) at Urðir in Svarfaðardalur. Some claim that his father was Arnfinnur Sturluson, son of Sturla Hálfdánarson, but there are no substantial facts in support of that claim. Jón Sigurðsson thought it likely that Eyjólfur was the son of Ásgrímur Þorsteinsson" (Íslendingabók).[1]
