bay in Iceland [Icelandic info]: Í skrá Þjóðminjasafns Íslands yfir friðlýstar fornleifar segir "a. Rústir eyðibýlisins Húsavíkur, við lón nokkur sem þar er austur frá við sjóinn." Í Árbók FÍ frá 1937 segir "Fyrr á öldum var þessi jörð [Hnappavellir] mun minni en nú en undir Hnappavellina hafa síðar lagst jarðir sem voru austar og eyddust ýmist af vantaágangi eða jökulhlaupum. Með vissu vita menn um þrjár, en þær voru Húsavík sem var austur undir Öldulóni og nærri sjó. Sú jörð hefir sennilega eyðst í jökulhlaupi á 14. öld." Í örnefnaskrá segir: "Stórugrjótin eru leifar eftir jökulhlaup. Niður af þeim, við lónið, er talið að bærinn Húsavík hafi staðið." Þarna mótar fyrir gamalli vík og örnefnið heldur sér.
