Adam then relates that after Sigtrygg reigned a short time, during the tenure of Archbishop Hoger of Bremen (909–915/917), Hardegon, son of Sweyn, came from "Northmannia" the "land of the Northmen," by which he may have meant Norway, Normandy, which had recently been colonized by Danish Vikings, or even northern Jutland.
Adam kemudian menceritakan bahwa setelah Sigtrygg memerintah beberapa saat, selama masa jabatan Uskup Agung Hoger dari Bremen (909-915 / 917), Hardegon, anak dari Svend, berasal dari "Northmannia" "tanah orang-orang utara," yang dengannya dia dapat berarti Norwegia, Normandia, yang baru saja dijajah oleh Viking Denmark, atau bahkan Jutland bagian utara.
