Grœnlendinga þáttr ('The Tale of the Greenlanders') or Einars þáttr Sokkasonar ('The Tale of Einarr Sokkason') is a short medieval Icelandic tale (þáttr).^[1] It is preserved in the manuscript Flateyjarbók, towards the end of the second half of the manuscript which was written by Magnús Þórhallsson.^[1] The author of the tale itself is unknown.^[1] The tale takes place in Greenland, but unlike Grœnlendinga þáttr (I), it makes no mention of Vinland.

In the tale, Einarr Sokkason brings a priest, Arnaldr, to Greenland from Norway to be Bishop of Greenland. Around this time, a Norwegian merchant named Arnbjörn sets off for Greenland, but is wrecked and his ship later found in a firth. Arnbjörn’s kinsmen sail to Greenland and request his recovered property. The bishop refuses this, leading to feud between the two groups. A battle occurs in which men from both sides are killed, including Einarr Sokkason.^[1]
