    • Eadgils (Beowulf), Adils the Great, or Athisl (Saxo Grammaticus) (all forms are based an older Aðgils, the Anglo-Saxon form is not etymologically identical but it was the only corresponding name used by the Anglo-Saxons) was a Swedish king of the house of Scylfings. He was the son of Ohthere. Eadgils figures in several sources which suggests that they are based on real events in which a civil war erupted in Sweden between Eadgils and his uncle Onela, which Eadgils won by hiring outside assistance.

      Snorri Sturluson relates that Eadgils (Adils) loved good horses and had the best horses in his days (interestingly, the contempary Gothic scholar Jordanes noted that the Swedes were famed for their good horses). One horse was named Slöngve and another one Raven, which he had taken from Onela (Áli). From this horse he had bred a horse also named Raven which he sent to king Godgest of Hålogaland, but Godgest could not manage it and fell from it and died, in Omd on the island of Andøya. Eadgils himself died in a similar way at the Disablót. Eadgils was riding around the Disa shrine when Raven stumbled and fell, and the king was thrown forward and hit his skull on a stone. He was buried at Uppsala, and was succeeded by Östen.
