Erlend Turf-Einarsson
Earl of Orkney, historically Jarl of Orkney, is a title of nobility encompassing the archipelagoes of Orkney and Shetland, which comprise the Northern Isles of Scotland. Originally founded by Norse invaders, the status of the rulers of the Northern Isles as Norwegian vassals was formalised in 1195. Although the Old Norse term ''jarl'' is etymologically related to "earl", and the jarls were succeeded by earls in the late 15th century, a Norwegian ''jarl'' is not the same thing. In the Norse context the distinction between jarls and kings did not become significant until the late 11th century and the early jarls would therefore have had considerable independence of action until that time. The position of Jarl of Orkney was eventually the most senior rank in medieval Norway except for the king himself. The jarls were periodically subject to the kings of Alba for those parts of their territory in what is now mainland Scotland (i.e. Caithness and Sutherland). In 1232, a Scottish ...

Their lives and times are recounted in the ''Orkneyinga Saga'', which was first written down in the early 13th century by an unknown Icelandic author.

It is frequently stated that Thorfinn's demise was in 1065, but it may have been earlier. The ''Orkneyinga Saga'' fails to mention a campaign in the Irish Sea by Magnus Haraldsson in 1058, (which is the first such event attested in conte ...
