Notes
- ^ The location contained other names such as Tyrseng ("Tyr's Meadow") which is itself located near Dødeå ("Stream of the dead" or "Dead Stream"). Religious practices associated with Odin and Tyr may have occurred in these places. Further, a spring dedicated to Holy Niels exists in the area that was likely a Christianization of prior indigenous pagan practice.
