Christianization of Iceland
Iceland was Christianized in approximately 1000 AD. In Icelandic, this event is known as the ''kristnitaka'' (literally, "the taking of Christianity").
The earliest Christian observance in the country in all likelihood began with the arrival of the first settlers during the settlement of Iceland in the 9th and 10th centuries AD. Some of them were from the British Isles and had adopted Christianity through their contact with the Irish. However, the vast majority of the initial settlers were pagan, worshipping the ''Æsir'' (the Norse gods), and organized Christian observance probably died out within a generation or so.
== Sources ==
Iceland's adoption of Christianity is traditionally ascribed to the year 1000 (although some historians would place it in the year 999). The major sources for the events preceding the adoption of Christianity are Ari Thorgilsson's ''Book of the Icelanders'', the Icelandic family sagas and Church writings about the first bishops and preachers. Ari's account of the events surrounding the conversion seems to be reliable; although he was born 67 years after the conversion, he cites first-hand sources.
