Saxo s kings of Sweden appear in the Denmark Danish Gesta Danorum by Saxo Grammaticus . Some kings e.g. Athisl Adils , Hunding Fj lnir , Halfdan , Sigurd Ring , Ragnar Lodbrok and Erik and Alrik are based on the same traditions as the West Norse Ynglingatal , Ynglinga saga and Historia Norvegi Historia Norwegiae . Moreover, the dynasties are the same, i.e. the descendants of the god Frey i.e. the Yngling lineage Yngling s and intermediary Skj ldung s. However, there are many differences. These differences are not only due to a considerable distance in time from the kings they describe and to the traditions being kept in different parts of Scandinavia . Whereas Ynglingatal glorifies the Norwegian kings by their Swedish origins, Saxo s Swedish kings are there to glorify the Danes by being dominated by them, the task of which might have needed some creativity from Saxo s side and or Danish tradition. On the other hand, it did not need to move the Ynglings to Norway and so describes kings following Ingjald as kings of Sweden as Ynglings as well. This list is presently incomplete Hunding corresponding to Fj lnir in the Norse saga s . Erik and Alrik corresponding to Erik and Alrek in the Norse sagas Halfdan Eriksson Siward Halfdan vs. Erik Frodisson corresponding to Halfdan vs. Aun Yngwin Ungvin of G taland at the death of Halfdan apparently corresponding to Aun s return from G taland to reclaim the Swedish throne at the death of Halfdan Ragnvald his position corresponds to Ongentheow Egil Hothbrodd his position corresponds to Ohthere Ottar Vendelkr ka .
