Notities over Bjorn "de ijzervreter" RAGNARSSON

Bj�as one of the major Viking raiders from the mid 850s until 862. During 856-7 he was on the Seine and his name is associated with the vikings who established or took over a base on the island of Oissel where they were at last beleagured by Charles the Bald. They managed to raise the siege after 12 weeks. Later he and Hastein made a four year cruise with 62 ships to Spain, North Africa and Italy and possibly further east. Two of their ships laden with gold, silver and prisoners were captured by the Moors off the coast of Spain. They were next at Guadalquivar but did not prosper and some say they went upriver as far as Seville. Then through the Straits of Gibralter to Algeciras to plunder and next to the North African shore in the Cabo Tres Forcas region where they rounded up prisoners for ransom and took a few with them who eventually wound up in Ireland. Then it was back to Spain's Murcia coast, the Balearics, southern France and sacked Narbonne and then wintered on the island of Camargue in the Rhone delta. They raided Arles, Nimes and Valence but took a beating from the Franks and went to the Ligurian Riviera and then raided Pisa and east to Alexandria, raided Luna mistakenly thinking it was Rome, and by 861were back at Gibralter where the Moorish fleet defeated them. The survivors reached Navarre and captured Pamplona and ransomed its prince and in 862 one 20 of the 62 ships sailed safely back into the mouth of the Loire. ============= From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Bj�Ironside (Old Norse: Bj�Jà±½sî»í, Swedish: Bj�Jã±½sida) was a legendary Swedish king who would have lived sometime in the 9th century. Ragnarssona �tells that Bj�was the son of the Swedish king Ragnar Lodbrok and Aslaug, the daughter of Sigurd and Brynhild, and that he had the brothers Hvitserk, Ivar the Boneless and Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye, and the half-brothers Eric and Agnar. Bj�and his brothers left Sweden to conquer Zealand, Reidgotaland (here Jutland), Gotland, ռand and all the minor islands. They then settled at Lejre with Ivar the Boneless as their leader. Ragnar was jealous with his sons' successes, and set Eysteinn Beli as the jarl of Sweden, telling him to protect Sweden from his sons. He then went east across the Baltic Sea to pillage and to show his own skills. Ragnar's sons Eric and Agnar then sailed into Lake Mã½íren and sent a message to king Eysteinn that they wanted him to submit to Ragnar's sons, and Eric said that he wanted Eysteinn's daughter Borghild as wife. Eysteinn said that he first wanted to consult the Swedish chieftains. The chieftains said no to the offer, and ordered an attack on the rebellious sons. A battle ensued and Eric and Agnar were overwhelmed by the Swedish forces, whereupon Agnar died and Eric was taken prisoner. Eysteinn offered Eric as much of Uppsala �s he wanted, and Borghild, in wergild for Agnar. Eric proclaimed that after such a defeat he wanted nothing but to choose the day of his own death. Eric asked to be impaled on spears that raised him above the dead and his wish was granted. In Zealand, Aslaug and her sons Bj�and Hvitserk, who had been playing tafl, became upset and sailed to Sweden with a large army. Aslaug, calling herself Randalin rode with cavalry across the land. In a great battle they killed Eysteinn. Ragnar was not happy that his sons had taken revenge without his help, and decided to conquer England with only two knarrs. King Ella of Northumbria defeated Ragnar and threw him into a snake pit where he died. Bj�and his brothers attacked Aella but were beaten back. Asking for peace and wergild, Ivar the Boneless tricked Aella into giving him an area large enough to build the town of York. Ivar made himself popular in England and asked his brothers to attack again. During the battle Ivar sided with his brothers and so did many of the English chieftains with their people, in loyalty to Ivar. Ella was taken captive and in revenge they carved blood eagle on him. Later Bj�and his brothers pillaged in England, Wales, France and Italy, until they came to the town Luna in Italy. When they came back to Scandinavia, they divided the kingdom so that Bj�Ironside took Uppsala and Sweden. The Hervarar saga tells that Eysteinn Beli was killed by Bj�and his brothers as told in Ragnar Lodbrok's saga, and they conquered all of Sweden. When Ragnar died Bj�Ironside inherited Sweden. He had two sons, Refil and Erik Bj�son, who became the next king of Sweden. Historical sources His existence as a historic figure is supported by three non-Scandinavian sources. The Annales Bertiniani and the Chronicon Fontanellense tell of a Viking leader named Berno who pillaged on the Seine in the 850s, and c. 1070, William of Jumiç¼Ñs referred to him as Bier Costae ferreae (Ironside) who was Lotbroci regis filio (son of king Lodbrok)[1].
