Gray Goose Laws information


Grágás GKS 1157 fol.

The Gray (Grey) Goose Laws (Icelandic: Grágás [ˈkrauːˌkauːs]) are a collection of laws from the Icelandic Commonwealth period. The term Grágás was originally used in a medieval source to refer to a collection of Norwegian laws and was probably mistakenly used to describe the existing collection of Icelandic law during the sixteenth century. The Grágás laws in Iceland were presumably in use until 1262–1264 when Iceland was taken over by the Norwegian crown.
