Ynglinga saga is the first part of Snorri's history of the ancient Norse kings, the Heimskringla.

The work is modelled on the Heimskringla, Snorri's work on the Norwegian kings.

Eric's death seems to be a misunderstanding on Snorri's part due to an influence from the succeeding kings ( see also the other sources below ):

Snorri's interpretation of the 13th century foreshadows 20th century views of Indo-European migration from the east.

Heyerdahl accepted Snorri's story as literal truth, and believed that a chieftain led his people in a migration from the east, westward and northward through Saxony, to Fyn in Denmark, and eventually settling in Sweden.

In 2010 Rudolf Simek, building on an analysis by Lotte Motz, argued that vanir was originally nothing more than a general term for deities like æsir, and that its employment as a distinct group of deities was Snorri's invention, and the Vanir are therefore " a figment of imagination from the 13th to 20th centuries ".

The third mention made of Hliðskjálf is during Snorri's recounting of the wooing of Gerd, quoted by him from Skírnismál.

Snorri's knowledge of Níðhöggr seems to come from two of the Eddic poems: Grímnismál and Völuspá.

Scholars have debated as to what extent Snorri's account of Ymir is an attempt to synthesize a coherent narrative for the purpose of the Prose Edda and to what extent Snorri drew from traditional material outside of the corpus that he cites.

Due to his absence in other relevant mythological texts, numerous scholars have argued that Baugi either comes from a source that is not extant today or was an invention of Snorri's, accidental or intentional.

The most popular version of the creation of Mjölnir myth, found in Skáldskaparmál from Snorri's Edda, is as follows.

They are immediately set upon by a gang of giants from the cave of Geirrod, but Thor and Thjalfi ( Þjálfi ) quickly put them to flight ( although in Snorri's version of the tale Þjálfi is replaced with Loki ).

Tyr, Höd, and Bragi are conspicuously absent from this list, one reason to believe it is not from Snorri's hand.

Snorri's Ynglinga Saga relates that after the giantess Skaði broke off her marriage with Njörd, she " married afterwards Odin, and had many sons by him, of whom one was called Sæming " from whom Jarl Hákon claimed descent.

In the same year, he brought out the first complete editions of Snorri's Edda and Sæmundr's Edda ( more commonly known as the Poetic or Elder Edda ), in the original text, along with Swedish translations of both Eddas.

Like Snorri's Hel, she is terrifying to in appearance, black or dark in colour, usually naked, adorned with severed heads or arms or the corpses of children, her lips smeared with blood.

Davidson concludes that, in these examples, " here we have the fierce destructive side of death, with a strong emphasis on its physical horrors, so perhaps we should not assume that the gruesome figure of Hel is wholly Snorri's literary invention.

John Lindow states that most details about Hel, as a figure, are not found outside of Snorri's writing in Gylfaginning, and says that when older skaldic poetry " says that people are ' in ' rather than ' with ' Hel, we are clearly dealing with a place rather than a person, and this is assumed to be the older conception ," that the noun and place Hel likely originally simply meant " grave ," and that " the personification came later.

Snorri's descriptions of Hel in the Prose Edda are not corroborated outside of Baldrs draumar, which does not appear in the original Codex Regius but is a later addition often included with modern editions of the Poetic Edda.

R. D. Fulk notes that Snorri's Prose Edda account " conflicts with the poetic version, as the Edda presents a Noah-like figure, while the latter has Bergelmir laid ( lagiðr ) in the lúðr, implying he is an infant, as in the Scyld story.

John Lindow says that scholars have generally followed Snorri's etymological connection with the root lof -, meaning " praise.

She came upon a dead man ; Thorbrand, Snorri's son, with a flat stone fixed in his head ; his sword lay beside him, so she took it up and prepared to defend herself therewith.

Arnkel finally engages in a physical dispute with Snorri and the Thorbrandssons ( Þorbrandsson ), Snorri's foster brothers.

Saxo holds she was the daughter of Æthelred, King of England ( usually identified with Æthelred of Wessex ), while Jómsvíkinga saga and Snorri's Heimskringla say her father was a king or jarl of Jutland or Holstein called Harald Klak.

To what extent Snorri's presentation is poetic creation only remains unclear.

The prose introduction to Lokasenna and Snorri's list of kennings state that Ægir is also known as Gymir, who is Gerðr's father, but this is evidently an erroneous interpretation of kennings in which different giant-names are used interchangeably.

The Prose Edda, sometimes referred to as the Younger Edda or Snorri's Edda is an Icelandic manual of poetics which also contains many mythological stories.

The composition of the sagas is Snorri's.

The historians of mid-19th century put great trust in the factual truth of Snorri's narrative, as well as other old Norse sagas.

These historians pointed out that Snorri's work had been written several centuries after most of the events it describes.

In Norway, the historian Edvard Bull famously proclaimed that " we have to give up all illusions that Snorri's mighty epic bears any deeper resemblance to what actually happened " in the time it describes.

Sif is introduced in chapter three of the Prologue section of the Prose Edda ; Snorri's euhemerized account of the origins of Viking mythology.

Andy Orchard and Rudolf Simek state that, as Snotra is otherwise unattested outside of the Prose Edda, that Snotra may be an invention of Snorri's.

Andy Orchard comments " Snorri's etymologizing interpretation is scarcely profound, and may imply that he had no access to further material " and notes that references to Vör are otherwise rare.

Many of the poems are quoted in Snorri's Edda but usually only in bits and pieces.

This is explicitly stated only in Snorri's Prose Edda.

Baugi is attested to in Skáldskaparmál in Snorri's Prose Edda, and does not appear in other texts.
