Pritsak's speculations

So Pritsak is reported to identify the Ragnvald mentioned in Ed as the ~~daughter~~ son of Fastve with a Ragnvald of the Jarlbanke clan. Mats G. Larsson mentions the first stone in his study "Väringar" about Scandinavians in Byzantium. He is not averse to some speculation, but he does not even mention the Jarlabanke connection, as fas as I can see. The name Ragnvald was not that uncommon. /Pieter Kuiper 13:40, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, Pritsak does not identify Ragnvaldr of Ed as the "daughter of Fastve". On what do you base that interpretation? Where does it say that Ragnvaldr was a girl?--Berig 13:42, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Does not the dating of the Pr 4 style to the second half of the 11th century pose a bit of a problem for Pritsak's theory? /Pieter Kuiper 14:06, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It depends on how certain we can be about the dating of the styles. This source says that the style pr1 began to be used c. 1010, but Rundata dates Ög81 to the late 10th century.--Berig 14:14, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
