Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingvar
Yngvar Harra (or Ingvar) Proto-Norse *Ingu-Hariz (d. early 7th century) was the son of 
?sten and reclaimed the Swedish throne for the House of Yngling after the Swedes 
had rebelled against S?lvi.

Snorri Sturluson relates in his Ynglinga saga that King Ingvar, ?sten's son, was a 
great warrior who often spent time patrolling the shores of his kingdom fighting Danes 
and Estonian vikings (V?kingr fr? Esthland). King Ingvar finally came to a peace 
agreement with the Danes and could take care of the Estonian vikings.

He consequently started pillaging in Estonia in retribution, and one summer he arrived 
at a place called Stein (see also Sveigder). The Estonians (s?slu kind) assembled a 
great army in the interior and attacked King Ingvar in a great battle. The Estonian 
forces were too powerful and Ingvar fell and the Swedish forces retreated. Ingvar was 
buried in a mound at a place called Stone or Hill fort (at Steini) on the shores of 
Estonia (A?als?sla).

Snorri then quotes a stanza from ?j???lfr of Hvinir's Ynglingatal:

?at st?kk upp,at YngvariS?slu kindum s?at haf?i,ok lj?sh?mumvi? lagar hjartaher 
Eistneskrat hilmi v?,ok austmarrj?fri s?nskumG?mis lj??at gamni kve?r.[1] Certain it is 
the Estland foeThe fair-haired Swedish king laid low.On Estland's strand, o'er Swedish 
graves,The East Sea sings her song of waves;King Yngvar's dirge is ocean's 
roarResounding on the rock-ribbed shore.[2]  

The Historia Norwegi? presents a Latin summary of Ynglingatal, older than Snorri's 
quotation (continuing after Eysteinn):


Hujus filius Ynguar, qui cognominatus est canutus, in expeditione occisus est in 
quadam insula Baltici maris, qu? ab indigenis Eysysla[1] vocatur. Iste ergo genuit 
Broutonund, quem Sigwardus frater suus [...].[2]
 
His son Yngvar, nicknamed the Hoary, was killed by the inhabitants while campaigning 
on an island in the Baltic called ?sel. Yngvar bred Braut-?nund, whose brother, 
Sigurd, [...][3]
  

Ynglingatal only mentions the location Sysla (area paying tribute), Historia Norwegiae 
only mentions that he died during a campaign on the island Eycilla, i.e. Eysysla (?sel). 
In addition to his son Anund (Broutonund), it also adds second son named Sigvard.

Thorsteins saga V?kingssonar skips Ingvar's generation and makes his father ?sten 
the father of Anund and grandfather of Ingjald. It adds a second son to ?sten named 
Olaf, who was the king of Fjordane in Norway.
