Skjoldung - Skjoldung
A dynasty (one of the small tribal kingdoms) whose ancestor was the legendary hero Skill, who lived in Skone, the homeland of the Danes, in southern Scandinavia. Skill and his descendants are mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon epic poem Beowulf (c. 8th century) and in the Icelandic sagas. It is said that they extended their influence to the Jutland Peninsula and Sweden from the 5th century onwards, and later Danish kings whose existence is confirmed were named after the Skill dynasty.
