Augvald (Old Norse: Ogvaldr) was a semi-legendary Norwegian petty king portrayed in the legendary Norse sagas. If considered historical, reconstructed estimates based on saga information would have Augvald living some time in the 7th century AD. His kingdom was said to have been based in Jøsursheid, somewhere in the interior of south-western Norway. After a number of naval battles he succeeded in conquering the islands off the western coast of Rogaland. He subsequently moved his kingdom's seat to the north-east of Karmøy, the largest of those islands and adjacent to the strategically important Karmsund strait, to a site later given the name Avaldsnes, after the king. Augvald's kingdom further expanded to incorporate parts of what is today south-western Hordaland.

  • König Augvald (norrøne Sprache: Ogvaldr) ist eine Figur in der norwegischen Saga und anderer Überlieferungen. Er soll ein Kleinkönig auf Karmøy gewesen sein und um 500–650 gelebt haben. Der Ort Avaldsnes auf Karmøy soll nach ihm benannt sein. Der Name wird gedeutet als „Der, der dem Volk Ehrfurcht einflößt“, oder er wird hergeleitet von der altnordischen Wurzel Og = Küste oder dem alten Wort Ogn = Øy = Insel. Dann würde der Name bedeuten „Wächter der Küste“ oder „Wächter der Insel“. Es wird auch für wahrscheinlich gehalten, dass es sich überhaupt nicht um einen Namen, sondern um einen Beinamen handelte, so wie „Hårfagre“ der Beiname König Haralds war. Wenn Avaldsnes (alt: Ogvaldsnes) „Halbinsel des Küstenherrn“ bedeutet (eine Halbinsel auf der Insel Karmøy), dann könnte dies auch ein Titel (de)
