Halldórr skvaldri[edit]

"Skáldatal gives Einarr Skúlason and Halldórr skvaldri as two of John's court skalds."

Skáldatal also gives Halldórr as one of Magnus Barefoot's skalds. Since Magnus died in 1103 and Jón was born in 1201, Halldórr must have lived to a very old age... Sigo 17:11, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Jarl was probably not John I of Sweden (born 1201), but this does not really solve the chronology of Skaldatal. /Pieter Kuiper 18:25, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Jon Jarl was probably Sörkvir Kolsson's eldest son. I don't see any other problem with the chronology of Skáldatal. Sigo 21:31, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
