1 lögsögu-maðr lǫgsǫgu-maðr
m. the ‘law-speaking man,’ the lagman or law-speaker of the Icel. Commonwealth, see the remarks s. v. lögmaðr; for the office, duties, etc. see Grág., esp. the Lögsögumanns-þáttr or section of the l., the Íb., Kristni S. ch. 11, Nj., etc.; for a list of the Icel. lögsögumenn from 930–1280 A. D. and lögmenn from 1280–1800, when the office and name were abolished, see Safn ii. 1 sqq. The lögsögumaðr was during the first hundred years (930–1030) elected for life, afterwards for a shorter time (three years); his tenure of office formed the groundwork for the chronology of Ari the historian in his work the Icelander Book.
