  • Ragnhild Eiríksdóttir (Eriksdotter) (934 - 984?) fue una princesa de Noruega en el siglo X, hija de Erico I de Noruega y su consorte, Gunnhildr, la única hija fruto de esa unión.​​ Según la Saga Orkneyinga,​ era una mujer intrigante, fiel reflejo de su madre, a quien solo le interesaba el poder. Tras la muerte del rey Erico en la batalla de Stainmore, su madre concertó su matrimonio en 954 con el jarl de las Orcadas, Arnfinn Thorfinnsson, durante su estancia en el archipiélago antes de partir hacia Dinamarca con sus hijos varones. Thorfinn murió en extrañas circunstancias asesinado en Caithness en algún momento de 979, y casó de nuevo con Havard, el hermano del jarl Arnfinn, quien posiblemente pudo estar involucrado en la muerte de su hermano siendo cómplice de Ragnhild y esclavo de la lujuria. Havard no tuvo mejor suerte y Ragnhild convenció a Einar Klining, posible sobrino de Havard, para asesinarle con la promesa de casarse con él y convertirlo en jarl. Havard murió en Stenness pero no se conoce la fecha aproximada. Antes de cumplir con su promesa de matrimonio a Einar, hizo exactamente lo mismo con otro sobrino del jarl también llamado Einar y apodado «Recias Mandíbulas», que acabó con la vida de Einar Klining.​ No se sabe que pasó con el segundo Einar, ya que Ragnhild tomó al hermano menor de los jarls Ljot como tercer marido. Tras la muerte de Ljot en la batalla de Skidmoor en Caithness,​ no se vuelve a mencionar a Ragnhild en las crónicas y sagas contemporáneas. Ambos Einar eran nietos de Thorfinn Hausakljúfr. (es)
  • Ragnhild Eriksdotter (died c. 984) was the daughter of Eric Bloodaxe and his wife, Gunnhild. According to the Orkneyinga Saga, she was an ambitious and scheming woman who sought power through the men of the family of Thorfinn Torf-Einarsson, who was Earl of Orkney. The period after Thorfinn's death was one of dynastic strife. Thorfinn had five sons: (Arnfinn, Havard, Hlodvir, Ljot, Skuli) and at least two daughters, each of whom had a son called Einar. In Orkneyinga Saga it is stated that Ragnhild Eriksdotter first married Arnfinn Thorfinnsson, eldest son of Thorfinn. Her husband was subsequently murdered at Murkle in Caithness sometime around 979. Her next husband was Arnfinn's brother, Havard Thorfinnsson who may have been involved in his brother's murder. Havard became Earl of Orkney and promptly married his brother's widow. Next Ragnhild convinced Thorfinn grandson, Einar Klining, to kill Havard for which she would marry him and make him Earl. Havard was killed in Stenness, Orkney, though the date is uncertain. Before Einar Klining could marry her, Ragnhild had promised Einar Hardkiopt, another grandson of Thorfinn, the same thing, if he would kill Einar Klining. This he did, but then Ragnhild took Havard's younger brother Liot Thorfinnsson as her husband. After Liot went on to defend Orkney and claim the Earldom, he died of his wounds from the battle of Skidmoor in Caithness. No more is heard of Ragnhild after that event. Hlodvir Thorfinnsson then became Earl of Orkney. In time, he was succeeded by his son, Sigurd the Stout. (en)
