Elda is attested in Njal's Saga as a place associated with Olaf Kettle's son, who is identified as being "of Elda" (Njal's Saga, Kolskegg Goes Abroad; Njal's Saga, Njal's Sons Sail Abroad). Both citations use the same formulation, placing Olaf at Elda across two separate chapters of the saga.

Elda is connected to Bergliot, Alf Rode, and Ottar Birting.
