Hans Olav Lien was a Norwegian Oera Linda researcher and translator.
He participated (as ‘Apol’) in the discussion on Unexplained Mysteries and had a great website, which is currently offline.
According to a message from his family, Hans Olav (born 1954) died on March 6th, suddenly and unexpectedly, aged 61.
Although I never met Hans Olav in person, it felt like he was a friend and the news of his death has made me sad. We have corresponded about our shared fascination, until two weeks before he died, and he translated
my video about Oera Linda into Norwegian.
I hope his family will make his website available again, because he devoted a considerable part of his life to it and it is of great value.
Through
web.archive.org, the introduction of his website can still be recovered. I copied it below. His Norse translation is [since Aug. 2024 available on
wiki.oeralinda.org.]
Hans Olav, thank you for all the great work you did.

From Hans Olav's website (oeralindabook.com) which included a transliteration, a Norse and an English translation:
The Oera Linda Book
is one of the strangest manuscripts in existence. It came to light in
The Netherlands in 1867, when shipwright Cornelis Over de Linden in
Enkhuizen presented it to the public for the first time – in Leeuwarden
in the province of Friesland.
The manuscript was put down in a time when there in North Europe
shouldn’t even have existed any written language, and the alphabet in
which it is written had never been seen before by anyone in modern times
– though it bears some resemblance to the alphabet we use today.
The 186 page-long manuscript present to us outlines of European
history from a time so remote that we know almost nothing about it,
other than through archaeological finds, DNA, and a few references by
Greek writers of antiquity. Today one regards North Europe as having
been a quite unimportant outpost in the Bronze and Iron Ages. Here,
however, we are getting to know that today’s Netherlands was the
administrative, cultural, and religious center of Europe ever since
before 2193 BC, when a vast global nature catastrophe ravaged the
planet.
The reason why they started to write down their history around 560
BC, was that the culture at that time was under heavy pressure due to
conquests and infiltrations from the Middle East. Learned of the time
faced that their culture and faith was about to be wiped out completely,
therefore they wrote down all historical material and their doctrines
so that it shouldn’t become lost for the future. The material was
collected from the burgh-walls – where it had been the tradition to
inscribe all what was important, as well as from other sources.
It was all collected in a scripture or book named
The Book of Adela’s Followers.
Adela was the unofficial folk-mother of the nation at that time, and
she was also the initiator of collecting the material. The book was
taken care of by her family, which was granted the name
Overa Linda – an older version of
Over de Linden
– after she was killed. Later members of the family have provided more
material, and two of them have enclosed cover letters with strict
messages to the inheritors:
Dear inheritors, for the sake of our dear
forefathers, and for the sake of our dear freedom, I bid you a thousand
times: O dear, never let the eyes of a pope sympathizer wander over
these writings. They speek sweet words, but they distort unnoticed all
what relates to us Freyjans.
The writing of the history ended in the first half of the first
century AD, and in our time the complete material was given the title
The Oera Linda Book.
The scientific establishment has never made any real effort to study
either the content of the book or the paper on which it is written. One
has just supposed it to be humbug, and the sparse examinations which
have been undertaken have been made with that as the base. Of natural
reasons historians and other researchers are shunning everything which
is controversial. But there isn’t possible to detect any grounds that
the book should be a forgery other than fictitious, and its content
presents so many problems for discussion that if it should be a
falsification it would have been far more unbelievable than if it should
have been preserved over 2500 years.
On February 16th, 2016, ‘Othar’ (Jan Ott) wrote on the blog
Oera Linda and the Great Flood, Part 3, on the website
Unexplained Mysteries:
When information is hidden to the common public, it
is called “occult”. When an occult source suddenly shows up in the
public domain, it will be a threat to the cultural elite, so they will
try to hide it again.
In the case of the Oera Linda Book, they were too late, since it was
translated, published and widely discussed before they knew it. So what
else could be done than have it ridiculed and intimidate scholars who
dared to be interested in it? um
He is one of the several amateurs who are doing research on the content of the book, and I am another.
As the book has been copied several times during the ages, because
the material on which it is written hasn’t lasted for ever, what we are
left with today is possibly a scripture of the mid 19th century. If
that’s the case, an eventual authenticity can only be searched for in
the written content – in what is told there which one couldn’t know
around AD 1850. I have based the material presented on this website on
that fact, though I regard it as probable that the physical material
might be 600 years older.

Here is presented for the first time a translation in Norwegian, and at
the same time an English version which is more true to the contents of
the book. The two translations are running parallel in the form of a
polyglot, in combination with the original text transcribed into Latin
letters.

In the translations the material is sorted chronologically. The original pagination is inserted as red numbers in the text. What is else written in red types, are my comments.
