Il Frostating o Frostathing era un'antica sede assembleare Norvegese. Prendeva il nome da Frosta, l'odierno comune nella contea di Trøndelag. Tinghaugen come appare oggi. Sulla sommità della collina si trova un bautasten, una stele che reca scritto (at lögum skal land várt byggja en eigi at ulögum øyða).
