Anund Jacob, Swedish: Anund Jakob (Old Swedish: Æmundær colbrænnæ ("Emund coal-burner"), Old Icelandic: Ǫnundr Óláfsson) was King of Sweden from 1022 until around 1050. He is believed to have been born on July 25, in either 1008 or 1010 as Jakob. When the Swedish Thing was to elect him the co-ruler of Sweden, the people objected to his non-Scandinavian name. They then gave him the pronomen Anund, which they did when they found a name too difficult. (See also the later Anund Gårdske). The line of kings appended to the Westrogothic law says that he was called Kolbränna ("Coal-burner") as he had the habit of burning down the houses of his opponents.
