/* The Viking 'Raven Banner' */
====Saga of Olaf, Tryggvi's Son. (c.1387AD)====
:<span style="font-style: italic; color: green">"...Take thou here this banner which I' have made with all my skill, and I ween that it will bring victory to him before whom it is borne, but death to its bearer." The banner was wrought with cunningly executed handiwork and elaborate art. It was made in the shape of a raven, and when floating in the wind it resembled the raven flying." <br>
This saga is part of the Flateyjarbók written between 1387AD to 1394AD and contains expanded version of some of the sagas from the Heimskringla.
