Everything about Ogmund Crouchdance totally explained
Ogmund Crouchdance (
Old Norse Ǫgmund Krøkidans) was a
lendmann - a
Norwegian noble in the 13th century, under the kings
Håkon Håkonsson and
Magnus Lagabøte.
Ogmund was one of king Håkon Håkonsson's most loyal
lendmenn. He fought at Håkon's side during the rebellion of duke
Skule Bårdsson in 1240, and was leader for a contingent of the Norwegian forces who ravaged
Halland in 1256. In 1261 he was one of the leaders of the Norwegian delegation who took the

Horsens to bring her to Norway as the bride of the king's son,
Magnus Håkonsson. In 1263 he took part in king Håkon's expedition to
Scotland and led a contingent of the Norwegian forces at the
battle of Largs.
His nickname
Crouchdance is probably derived from the name of a Norwegian medieval dance.
