 Rurik (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.csres.utexas.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Some Slavic historians speculate that the account of Rurik's invitation was borrowed from a hypothetical Norse saga, although all sagas talk of expeditions into Gardariki and never of invitations.
For instance, the Primary Chronicle states that Rurik arrived to Slavic lands with two brothers, Sineus and Truvor, and sent them to rule the towns of Beloozero and Izborsk, respectively.
Instead of connecting Sineus to Signjotr and Truvor to Torvald, they suggest that the chronicler read a hypothetical saga and misinterpreted the Norse words sine hus (with house) and tru voring (with loyal guard) as the names of Rurik's brothers: Sineus and Truvor.
