Law of Iceland during the Commonwealth (930-1262) was decided by the Althing.
Following the Gamli sáttmáli, existing laws were compiled in the Jónsbók by Jón Einarsson (in 1281). The Althing was suspended in 1799, and re-established in 1845 as an advisory body of the Danish king and from 1874 as a legislative body.
The legislative body of the modern Republic of Iceland (since 1944) is again known as Althing.
