njars

Ancient name for the inhabitants of Nericia. The root nari, neri is cognate to English narrow and refers to the narrow inlets that caracterized the geography. The north-eastern (Kvismaren-Hjlmaren) has disappeared artificially, but the southern part of the province still has a large fjord (Alsen), a tribe that is also mentioned in the lay of Vlund (Weyland the Smith): "When the Lord of the Njars, Nidud, heard That Vlund sat in Wolfdale alone, He sent warriors forth: white their shield-bosses In the waning moon, and their mail glittered." - Translated by W. H. Auden and P. B. Taylor A subgroup of the Svear.
