Mentions only <Reiðgotaland> I believe. One that does
mention <Eygotaland> is 'Ragnarssona þáttr':
Þeir lögðu undir sik Selund ok Reiðgotaland, Eygotaland ok
Eyland ok öll smálönd í hafinu.
They [= Ragnar's sons] conquered Selund and Reiðgotaland,
Eygotaland and Eyland and all islands in the sea.
Here Selund is Zeeland, Eyland is Öland, Eygotaland appears
to be Gotland, and Reiðgotaland appears to be Jutland.
