- Gilli_(jarl) abstract "Gilli, also known as Gilla, was an early 11th-century Norse-Gaelic lord. According to Njáls saga, Gilli was a Hebridean jarl, centred at on the island of Coll, who paid tribute to his brother-in-law, Sigurðr 'the Stout', Jarl of Orkney (d. 1014). Historian Barbara E. Crawford suggested that Gilli must have controlled an extensive area in the southern Hebrides. Another saga, Orkneyinga saga, also notes Sigurðr's influence in the Irish Sea region; yet it makes no mention of Gilli. During this period in history, Sigurðr governed the Northern Isles, and is thought to have ruled parts of northern Scotland. Sigurðr is also said to have fought in Ireland, at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014. Recently, Clare Downham, noted that while it is possible that Sigurðr was testing his power in the Hebrides, as the saga literature implies, contemporary sources give little insight on the matter. Crawford noted that the portion of the hoards, found in 'Scandinavian Scotland', which date to the years 975–1025, coincide with the time when Sigurðr is thought to have extended his power into the Hebrides and the aftermath of his defeat at Clontarf.Gilli's wife is recorded in Njáls saga as Hvarflǫð. This name, according to Donnchadh Ó Corráin, is an Old Norse form of the very rare Irish language name Forbfhlaith. Gilli's own name has also been considered to be at least represented in a Gaelic form. "Gilli" may only the first half of his name. For example, a king of Norway named Haraldr Gilli was born and raised in Ireland; and likely originally bore the name of Giolla Criost, which was afterwards shortened in Norway. In this way, Gilli's full Gaelic name could equate to Gaelic forms of Gillecolum, Gillepatrick, Gillechrist; or any name composed of the Gaelic Giolla (meaning "servant") + [a saint's name].It has been suggested that the 12th century Norse-Gaelic lords Fergus of Galloway, and Somerled, could have been descendants of Gilli.".
