Hallveig Ormsdóttir

Hallveig Ormsdóttir (d. 1241) was an Icelandic heiress who became entangled in the feuds of Iceland’s Age of the Sturlungs, as told by Sturlunga saga. Her status as the richest woman in Iceland increased the standing of Snorri Sturluson when she became his financial partner in 1224; she was also his wife or mistress.
