History

Content Lendmann at Harald Gille

Hallkjell is known as the man who once obtained Harald Gille from Ireland in the 1120s. Harald had an Irish mother, claiming that his father was Magnus Berrføtt (Norwegian King 1093-1103). Snorre tells in the story of Magnus Son that Hallkjell traveled to the Sudrøyene ("the southern islands", the Norse name of the Hebrides), where he met Harald, who had then come from Ireland. Hallkjell brought both Harald and his mother to Norway and King Sigurd Jorsalfare. Sigurd was, if Harald's assertion of success was right, Harald's half brother. Sigurd demanded that Harald bear the burden of iron to prove his origin. Harald passed the test and was recognized as Sigurd's brother.

King Harald was killed in 1136, and the sons Sigurd, Inge and Øystein became kings. There were divisions in 1155 among the kingdoms, where Sigurd and Øystein merged with Inge to deprive him of the monarchy. Both Hallkjell and his sons first supported Øystein and Sigurd, but after Sigurd was killed later that year, both Hallkjell's sons went over to Inge. King Øystein must have been very fond of money, and after a speech the king held after a few fights in 1157, Snorre Hallkjell states the following: "Let your gold coffins now follow you and guard your country." Simon Skalp After this we hear nothing more about Hallkjell, and maybe he died shortly after.

Blindheimætten

Hallkjell belonged to the so-called Blindheim District, from Borgund in Sunnmøre. In the Middle Ages, the most powerful clans in the country made sure to marry each other, so the elite were linked together in a nationwide network. The Blindheim District, and also the Giskeketen and the Rein family (the genus that lived on the farm Rein in Trøndelag), all originated from the Anglo-Saxon chief Skule Kongsfostre. Skule followed King Olav Kyrre from England to Norway after the battle of Stamford bridge in 1066, and Hallkjell Huk was among Skule's many mighty descendants.

Hallkjell was the son of the lover Jon Smørbalte, and had two sons; Simon Skalp and Jon Hallkjellsson. Both sons were married to daughters of Harald Gille, Maria and Margaret, respectively. Jon's son, who also called Hallkjell, later became head of the Øyskjeggene, a group that fought against King Sverre Sigurdsson.

Om Hallkjell Huk Jonson (Norsk)

Hallkjell Huk var en lendmann i Norge i første halvdel av 1100-tallet. Hallkjell tilhørte Blindheimætten, en stormannsslekt fra Sunnmøre, og var i tjeneste hos den norske kongen Harald Gille.

Innhold Lendmann hos Harald Gille Rediger

Hallkjell er kjent som mannen som en gang i 1120-årene fikk hentet Harald Gille fra Irland. Harald hadde irsk mor, og påstod at faren hans var Magnus Berrføtt (norsk konge 1093-1103).[1] Snorre forteller i Magnussønnenes saga at Hallkjell reiste til Sudrøyene («sør-øyene», det norrøne navnet på Hebridene), hvor han møtte Harald, som da hadde kommet fra Irland. Hallkjell tok med både Harald og moren hans til Norge og kong Sigurd Jorsalfare. Sigurd var, dersom Haralds påstander om farsætt var riktig, Haralds halvbror. Sigurd krevde at Harald skulle bære jernbyrd for å bevise herkomsten sin. Harald bestod prøven, og ble anerkjent som Sigurds bror.[2]

Kong Harald ble drept i 1136, og sønnene Sigurd, Inge og Øystein ble konger. Det oppstod i 1155 splittelse blant brødrekongene, der Sigurd og Øystein gikk sammen mot Inge for å frata ham kongeverdigheten.[3] Både Hallkjell og sønnene hans støttet først Øystein og Sigurd, men etter at Sigurd ble drept senere samme år gikk begge Hallkjells sønner over til Inge.[4] Kong Øystein skal ha vært svært pengekjær, og etter en tale kongen holdt etter noen kamper i 1157 lar Snorre Hallkjell uttale følgende: «La nå gullkistene dine følge deg og verge landet ditt.»[5] Kort tid etter ble Øystein drept av Hallkjells sønn Simon Skalp.[6] Etter dette hører vi ikke noe mer om Hallkjell, og kanskje døde han kort tid etter.

Blindheimætten Rediger

Hallkjell tilhørte den såkalte Blindheimætten, fra Borgund på Sunnmøre. I middelalderen sørget de mektigste ættene i landet for å gifte seg med hverandre, slik at eliten var knyttet sammen i et landsomfattende nettverk. Blindheimætten, og også Giskeætten og Rein-ætten (slekten som bodde på gården Rein i Trøndelag), stammet alle fra den angelsaksiske høvdingen Skule Kongsfostre. Skule fulgte med kong Olav Kyrre fra England til Norge etter slaget ved Stamford bro i 1066, og Hallkjell Huk var blant Skules mange mektige etterkommere.[7]

Hallkjell var sønn av lendmannen Jon Smørbalte, og hadde to sønner; Simon Skalp og Jon Hallkjellsson. Begge sønnene ble gift med døtre av Harald Gille, henholdsvis Maria og Margaret. Jons sønn, som også het Hallkjell, ble senere leder for Øyskjeggene, en gruppe som kjempet mot kong Sverre Sigurdsson.[8]
