Biography

At the age of nineteen, Rosta and her husband Varin[1] built cairns together on a high cliff near the fjord. At some point after Eivor was born, Rosta taught them how to build cairns themselves, and explained to Eivor the importance of cairns as a test of mind and wit.[2]

Etymology

The name Rosta is related to the Old Norse word rósta, meaning 'brawl, riot, strife'. It's best known as the byname of Olvir Rosta, a character in the 13th century Orkneyinga saga, and thus has also been translated as 'brawler, rioter'.[3]
