Sediments spanning the last 9000 y from two sites in lake Vatnsdalsvatn (Lat. 66°N Long. 23°E) in northwest Iceland hold repeatable palaeomagnetic direction records. The Vatnsdalsvatn sediments have mean palaeomagnetic inclinations of 76° close to that expected for a geocentric axial dipole field, and direction fluctuations of around 20° from the mean. The palaeomagnetic directions are stable under alternating field partial demagnetization experiments. A time scale for the Vatnsdalsvatn sediments has been estimated from 14C dating. The pattern of palaeomagnetic secular change shows few similarities with British records 2000 km distant and a central North American record 5000 km distant.
