The Germanic Family
Yngling
The Ynglings are the oldest known Scandinavian dynasty. Yngling means descendant of Frey the Norse god of rain and sunshine. They are known from early Scandinavian sources, such as the Ynglingatal, a skaldic poem listing the kings of the House of Ynglings written around the ninth century, the Heimskringla, a saga of Norse kings written around the thirteenth century and from Beowulf an Old English heroic epic poem of anonymous authorship, written sometime between the eighth and eleventh centuries. They make up a large part of the mythological kings of Sweden as well as the semi-legendary kings of Sweden. The first kings in the line are probably mythical, whereas others have probably existed in real life. Those thought to be non mythical members of the dynasty are the Swedish king (Ottar) Vendelkråka (Vendelcrow) whose name in old Norse means feared warrior, Ongenşeow (Egil), Onela (Åle) and Eadgils(Ağísl) all mentioned in the Beowulf saga. -Text submitted by Rowenna Brigantes
