Editing Heimdall (section)

===''Heimskringla''===
In ''[[Ynglinga saga]]'' compiled in ''[[Heimskringla]]'', Snorri presents a [[euhemerized]] origin of the Norse gods and rulers descending from them. In chapter 5, Snorri asserts that the [[Áss|Æsir]] settled in what is now Sweden and built various temples. Snorri writes that Odin settled in [[Mälaren|Lake Logrin]] "at a place which formerly was called [[Fornsigtuna|Sigtúnir]]. There he erected a large temple and made [[blót|sacrifices]] according to the custom of the Æsir. He took possession of the land as far as he had called it Sigtúnir. He gave dwelling places to the temple priests." Snorri adds that, after this, [[Njörðr]] dwelt in [[Nóatún (mythology)|Nóatún]], [[Freyr]] dwelt in [[Uppsala]], Heimdall at Himinbjörg, [[Thor]] at [[Þrúðvangr]], [[Baldr]] at [[Breidablik|Breiðablik]] and that to everyone Odin gave fine estates.<ref name="HOLLANDER10">Hollander (2007:10).</ref>
