Domalde, Dómaldi or Dómaldr (Old Norse possibly "Power to Judge"[1]) was a legendary Swedish king of the House of Ynglings, cursed by his stepmother, according to Snorri Sturluson, with ósgæssa, "ill-luck".
Þá efldu Svíar blót stór at Uppsölum; hit fyrsta haust blótuðu þeir yxnum, ok batnaði ekki árferð at heldr.
[4][5] Snorri included a piece from Ynglingatal (9th century) in his account in the Heimskringla: Hitt vas fyrr, at fold ruðu sverðberendr sínum dróttni.
Ok landherr af lífsvǫnum dreyrug vôpn Dómalda bar, þás árgjǫrn Jóta dolgi Svía kind of sóa skyldi.
[6] The Historia Norwegiæ presents a Latin summary of Ynglingatal, older than Snorri's quotation: Cujus [Wisbur] filium Domald Sweones suspendentes pro fertilitate frugum deæ Cereri hostiam obtulerunt.
Iste genuit Domar [...][7] His [Visbur] son Domalde was hanged by the Swedes as a sacrificial offering to Ceres to ensure the fruitfulness of the crops.
