We know Orvar Odd from an Icelandic saga. He was born and grew up at Berglyd in the very south of Rogaland.
Odd was a restless soul. He travelled across large parts of the known world. Only when he was old did he return home. According to the saga, Odd was buried in a place where he could hear the sea, the rooster at Berglyd and the church bells. That place is the top of Oddsfjellet.
As a curiosity, I can mention that four Elite League football teams can be linked to the Viking Odd.
