 Death details? 

While no date is mentioned in this article, it is stated in Horik I that Ragnar dies mysteriously in 845. In the article on one of his sons, Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye, it recounts the story of Ragnar's death by King Ælla, in a pit of snakes, in 865. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more conflicting details in other related articles. Is there a definitive source for this? (or is the problem that of conflicting sources?) I am brining this to the attention of any knowledgeable contributors who may care to address it. -  '''' "
