Eysteinn (Swedish: Östen; died ca 600) was a semi-legendary king of Sweden, the son of Eadgils.
Sölve and his men surrounded the house and set it on fire burning everyone inside to death.
The Swedes refused and gathered an army that fought against Sölve and his men, but they lost after eleven days.
[citation needed] Stanza from Þjóðólfr of Hvinir's Ynglingatal: The Historia Norwegiæ presents a Latin summary of Ynglingatal, older than Snorri's quotation (continuing after Eadgils, called Adils or Athisl): Hic [Adils vel Athisl] genuit Eustein, quem Gautones in domo quadam obtrusum cum suis vivum incenderunt.
His son Yngvar, [...][3] Thorsteins saga Víkingssonar makes Eysteinn the father of Anund and grandfather of Ingjald and consequently skips Ingvar's generation.
