Van wie was Sigurd II van Noorwegen?

Sigurd II Haraldsson, bijgenaamd Sigurd Munn) (ca. 1133 - Bergen, 6 februari 1155) was van 1136 tot 1155 koning van Noorwegen. Hij was samen met zijn jongere broertjes Inge en Magnus door de Dingen tot koning benoemd (Sigurd door de Øyra-Ding) nadat hun vader Harald Gille in het bed van zijn minnares was vermoord. Zijn moeder was Tora Gotturmsdotter.

Kristin Sigurdsdatter (ca. 1125–1178) was a Norwegian princess and mother of King Magnus V of Norway.

Kristin was a daughter of King Sigurd I of Norway and Malmfred of Kiev. She married Erling Skakke (Erling Ormsson Skakke), a Norwegian nobleman who had earned his reputation crusading with Rögnvald Kali Kolsson, the Earl of Orkney. They had a son, Magnus Erlingsson.

Kristin was the only legitimate child of King Sigurd. In 1130, King Sigurd died with no legitimate sons. An illegitimate son, Magnus Sigurdsson (Magnus 4 Sigurdsson Blinde), became king of Norway jointly with his uncle Harald Gille. Harald Gille had four sons, Inge, Eystein, Sigurd and Magnus Haraldsson, all of whom became kings of Norway.

Following the death of King Inge in 1161, Kristin's son Magnus was crowned king at the age of eight. He ruled as king of Norway until his death in 1184.
