title: Kings' sagas
text: Kings' sagas are Old Norse sagas which principally tell of the lives of semi-legendary and legendary Nordic kings, also known as saga kings. They were composed during the twelfth through the fourteenth centuries, primarily in Iceland, but with some written in Norway. Kings' sagas frequently contain episodic stories known in scholarship as þættir, such as the Íslendingaþættir, Styrbjarnar þáttr Svíakappa, Hróa þáttr heimska, and Eymundar þáttr hrings.
