Old Norse is a North Germanic language spoken by inhabitants of Scandinavia from about the 7th to the 15th centuries. Old Icelandic is a variety of Old West Norse that emerged during the Norse settlement of Iceland in the second half of the 9th century. The rich tradition of Icelandic literature survived by oral tradition over several centuries before being written down in the 13th Century. The Tale of the Greenlanders (II) (The Tale of Einarr Sokkason) (Groenlendinga áttr (Einars áttr Sokkasonar)) is one of the many Tales of Icelanders or Íslendinga ttir. The word ' áttr' (plural: ' ttir') translates as a strand of rope or a yarn, comparable to the word 'yarn' in English sometimes used to refer to a story. This book contains:
