Summary

English: Harald Fairhair sends his son to king Athelstan. A foster parent was usually of lower rank than the real father, so by doing this, Harald indicated his own status.
Svenska: Harald hårfagre sänder sin son till kung Athelstan. En fosterförälder var i vanligtvis av lägre rang än den riktige fadern, varför Harald markerade sin status genom att adoptera bort sonen. |
