The word viking is never mentioned in the Nestor cronicles refering to the varjags, I remove this word. Dan Koehl 15:04, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

It is unknown whether Roslagen and Rus have the same background. Goliath74 17:57, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

A "roslag" (lit. "rowing team") was in old-swedish the term used for a boat crew (see leidang ), could this be coincidental or is it infact the same word? I have no expertice on this, so feel free to post comments if you have anything to add. --Njård 12:27, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
