The saga does not give a specific time of when this took place, but it does suggest that it was fourteen years before Snorri declared Christianity the official religion of Snæfellsnes.
Sagaen giver ikke et bestemt tidspunkt for, hvornår dette fandt sted, men den antyder dog, at det skete fjorten år, før Snorre erklærede kristendom for den officielle religion i Snæfellsnes.
