I'd be very interested in a common resolution. Jim. Isn't Kirsten Seaver talking about two Didrik Pining's in her book "The Frozen echo" ? Looks like there might have been one younger and one elder ?, which makes it possibly that there was one Norwegian and one German Didrik Pining. It's a rear name, but such coincidenses do take place sometimes. If the Norwegian nobleman Didrik Pining was a prominent member of the circle close to the king, I guess he would have been the one to be appointed to hirdstjori (governor) of Iceland and commander in chief of northern Norway.
