Tómasarbók

Tómasarbók (Reykjavík, Stofnun Árna Magnússonar, AM 510 4to) is a mid-sixteenth-century Icelandic manuscript. It was written between 1540 and 1560 by Ari Jónsson and his sons Jón and Tómas Arason.[1][2]

It contains eight sagas, including one of the two main sources of Finnboga saga ramma[3] and the youngest version of Jómsvíkinga saga, which may contain interpolations from an older, independent version of this saga.[4] Eight of the eleven remaining stanzas of Tindr Hallkelsson's Hákonardrápa are preserved in this version of Jómsvíkinga saga.[5]
