• Notes

  Lord of Bjelbo. "[He] was a medieval Swedish lawspeaker from the house of Bjelbo, the son of Bengt Folkason Snivel, jarl in Sweden, and nephew of the Riksjarl Birger Brosa. A lawspeaker (Swedish lagman) is a unique Scandinavian legal office. It has its origin in a common Germanic oral tradition, where wise men were asked to recite the law, but it was only in Scandinavia that the function evolved into an office." [Leo van de Pas]
