“1839, Kongelige Nordiske oldskriftselskab (Copenhagen, Denmark), Historiske Fortællinger om Islændernes Færd hjemme og ude, page 177”

Thorfinn, who carried the mark, then went back to the denser part of the formation, but these too did Adils attack, so it once more came to a hard battle, and the Scots, who had felled the chief, uttered yells of victory.

“Fylkingens Dele⟳ fik Navn efter Legemet, da den kunde sammenlignes med et Menneskes Liv med udbredte Arme; Fronten kaldtes nemlig Brystet (brjóst fylkingar), og her stod Høvdingen med sine tappreste Mænd og Mærket, fremmerst i Fylkingen (fremstr i brjóstinu); Fløjene kaldtes Arme (armr fylkingar).”

The parts of the formation were named after the body, as it could be likened to the body of a human with spread arms; the front was called the chest (brjóst fylkingar), and here stood the chief with his bravest men and the mark, at the front of the formation (fremstr i brjóstinu); the wings were called arms (armr fylkingar).
