==Life== thumb|Anundshög runestone, Vs at a grave associated with Anund.|left In his Ynglinga saga, Snorri Sturluson relates that Anund succeeded his father, king Yngvar, who fell in battle with the ″Estonian vikings″. After his father's wars against Danish and Estonian Vikings, peace reigned over Sweden and there were good harvests. Anund was a popular king who became very rich, not only because of the peace and the good harvests but also because he avenged his father in Estonia. That country was ravaged far and wide and in the autumn Anund returned with great riches.
