Thorbjorn Thorsteinsson (Old Norse: Þórbjörn klerkr Þórsteinnson), also known as Thorbjorn the Clerk, was a pirate from the Orkney Islands who was executed in 1158. Thorbjorn was married to the sister of Sweyn Asleifsson, but they first quarrelled after Sweyn attacked Thorbjorn's cousin, Olvir Rosta, and grandmother, Frakkok, and burned her to death inside her house. Earl Rognvald Kali Kolsson forced a reconciliation, and the two went plundering together in the Hebrides, but fell out again over the distribution of the loot. Thorbjorn had his marriage annulled and entered Rognvald's service.

| - Thorbjorn Thorsteinsson o Thorbjorn el Escriba (nórdico antiguo: Þórbjörn klerkr Þórsteinnson), fue un mercenario y pirata vikingo de las Orcadas, Escocia, a principios del siglo XII. Thorbjorn estaba casado con la hermana de Sweyn Asleifsson, pero ambos se enemistaron cuando Sweyn atacó al primo de Thorbjorn, Olvir Rosta y a la abuela de ambos, Frakokk Moddansdatter, que murió quemada en vida dentro de su casa. El jarl Rögnvald Kali Kolsson forzó una reconcilización y ambos se unieron en el saqueo de las Hébridas, pero de nuevo entraron en disputas sobre la distribución del botín. Thorbjorn anuló su matrimonio y entró al servicio del jarl Rögnvald. Más tarde, cuando entró al servicio del jarl Harald Maddadsson, Thorbjorn volvió a estar en compañía de Sweyn. (es)

En 1158, Thorbjorn fue perseguido por el jarl Rögnvald por matar a uno de los miembros de su séquito. Thorbjorn confió en su amistad con el jarl Harald, pero ambos nobles eran por entonces estrechos aliados y Thorbjorn se encontró en una difícil encrucijada, por lo que intentó emboscar y asesinar a Rögnvald. Harald se anticipó, lo condenó a muerte y fue ejecutado. (es)

Thorbjorn had his marriage annulled and entered Rognvald's service. Later, serving Harald Maddadsson, Thorbjorn found himself again thrown into Sweyn's company. In 1158, Thorbjorn was outlawed by Rognvald for murdering one of his retainers. He placed his faith in his friendship with Harald, but the two Earls had recently become allies, and Thorbjorn was in a very dangerous position. He attempted to resolve it by ambushing and assassinating Ranald; but Harald had him put to death. (en)
