Völu-Steinn is an Icelandic skald of the mid-10th century. Two half-stanzas have come down to us, both preserved in Snorri Sturluson's Skáldskaparmál (3, 57). As Landnámabók (S 142) mentions Völu-Steinn's great sorrow at the death of his son Ögmundr, it is generally admitted that these verse belong to a poem in memory of his son.See for instance: Snorri Sturluson. Edda. Translated and edited by Anthony Faulkes. London: Everyman, 1995. p. 259. . Sigurður Nordal suggested Völu-Steinn as a possible author of Völuspá.Sigurður Nordal (1952). Völuspá. Reykjavík: Helgafell.
