King Halsten Stenkilsson of Sweden, King of Sweden

Halsten Stenkilsson (Old Icelandic: Hallstein[1]%29 was king of Sweden after his father Stenkil's death (1066), and he ruled together with his brother Inge the Elder.[2][3][4] The date of his death is not known.

Little is known of his time as king. In a scholia in the work of Adam of Bremen, he is reported to have been elected king after the death of two pretenders, but deposed after a short while. The information that he ruled together with his brother Inge comes from a papal letter from 1081, by Pope Gregory VII, where Halsten and his brother are named with the initials A and I, and where they are called kings of Västergötland (rege wisigothorum). His co-rulership with his brother Inge is also mentioned in the Hervarar saga. In the regnal list of the Westrogothic law, he is said to have been courteous and cheerful, and whenever a case was submitted to him, he judged fairly, and this was why Sweden mourned his death.He was the father of the co-rulers Philip and Inge the Younger.

The Hervarar saga, which is one of the few sources about the kings of this time, has the following to tell:

King Steinkel had, besides Ingi, another son Hallstein who reigned along with his brother. Hallstein's sons were Philip and Ingi, and they succeeded to the Kingdom of Sweden after King Ingi the elder.

Halsten Stenkilsson eller Hallsten, cirka 1050 - 1070, var en svensk kung som regerade i Sverige under en kort tid efter år 1067 möjligen tillsammans med sin bror Inge den äldre fram till omkring 1070. Adam av Bremen nämner honom endast i en marginalanteckning. Han är även omtalad i äldre Västgötalagen.

Halsten var son till kung Stenkil och dennes drottning och far till de båda kungarna Filip och Inge den yngre. Hans dödsår är osäkert, och kan ha varit så tidigt som 1070 men också så sent som 1084. Enligt vissa texter skall han ha varit kraftigt påverkad av sin bror Inge den äldre som också möjligtvis orsakade de tronstridigheter som inträffade mellan 1066 och 1088 genom att stödja en hårdför kristendom.

I Västgötalagens regentlista sades han vara hövlig och glad, och närhelst ett lagärende lades fram för honom, dömde han rättvist, och för detta sörjde Sverige hans död[ifr%C3%A5gasatt uppgift].

Svært lite vites om Halstein. Han nevnes kun i en marginalskrift hos kronikøren Adam av Bremen hvor han påstås å ha regjert i Sverige i en kort tid etter år 1066. Halstein var sønn til kong Stenkil og far til to sønner som begge ble konger: Filip og Inge den yngre. Året han døde er usikkert, men det kan ha vært så tidlig som 1070 og så sent som 1084.

I henhold til noen tekster skal Halstein ha vært meget influert av sin bror Inge den eldre, som var årsaken til stridigheter om kongsmakten mellom 1066 og 1088 ved å gå innfor en hensynsløs og kompromissløs kristendom.
