  Notes	Egil is claimed to be the earliest of the kings in the Scandinavian sagas with corroborative evidence which can claim for him historical as distinct from mythical status. Earlier mythic figures may have been, and probably were, historical figures but the myth has so overlayed the original events that it is not possible to claim historical status for them or their family relationships - go to Egil's page in the Hougham family tree https://hougham-huffam.org/getperson.php?personID=I6134&tree=hougham to view this possible ancestry.
