The place-name preserves the story of Ásólfur, who according to Landnámabók was repeatedly forced to move west after local landowners objected to his success. The tradition links Ásólfsskáli with Miðskáli, Ysti-Skáli and Írá, making the site a genuine settlement-era story location rather than a generic folklore entry.
