The link marked "iron test" in the text brings up "Trial by ordeal", but the iron test is not defined among the ordeals listed in that article. There are several such references in articles on Kings of Norway during the civil war period (apparently it was a common test at that time and place) - perhaps a historian of the period can add the iron test to the Trial by Ordeal article...

The ordeal in question is, in fact, in the article on trial by ordeal, but it is referred to as "ordeal by fire". The examples listed under ordeal by fire refer to, among other things, walking on red-hot ploughshares or carrying red-hot irons - exactly as they did in old Norse iron tests. --Barend 14:47, 13 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
