Their domicile was named Skophammer and Skaaphammer in the Norwegian sources; the latter seems like a possible reading also in the case of the original you posted. (I.e. rather than Skaplahammer.) On a modern map it is called Skophamar: https://www.norgeskart.no/#!?project=norgeskart&layers=1002&zoom=14&lat=6816322.22&lon=89293.46&markerLat=6816322.223986395&markerLon=89293.45689295683&p=searchOptionsPanel&sok=Skophamar
