Biography

Hilde is mentioned in "Hversu Noregr byggðist", an Icelandic saga of the beginning of different mythological families in Norway:

Raumr inn gamli fekk síðar Hildar, dóttur Guðröðar ins gamla, sonar Sölva konungs, er fyrstr ruddi þar, sem nú heita Sóleyjar. En synir hans váru þeir Guðröðr, Haukr, Haddingr ok Hringr.

Hilde was the daughter of Gudrød the Old, son of king Sølve, and married Raum the Old. Their sons were Gudrød (king after Raum, and father of Øystein Illråde), Hauk, Hadding, and Ring (king of Ringerike and Valdres, and father of Halvdan the Old).

Research Note

An estimated birth year has been added in order to give the profile pre-1500 protection. It is, however, more of a guess than an estimate since the saga(s) mentioning her have been written many hundred years later.
