Hail Tore!
 I am completely facsinated by the possible (H)erul expansion and 
settlement into the areas that you mention, especially Iceland.  
Rather than read through the many postings regarding this issue, I 
shall ask the following, what are your principal sources, from what 
geographical point(s) do you see them eminating from?  And what 
information is there to point to the (H)eruls movement to Iceland?
