about

In Norse cosmology, svartálfar ("black elves"), also called myrkálfar, "dark elves", are beings who dwell in Svartálfaheim, "home of the black-elves").

Both the svartálfar and Svartálfaheimr are mentioned
in the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson. Scholars have noted that the svartálfar appear to be synonymous with the dwarfs and potentially also the dökkálfar ("dark elves"). As dwarfs, the home of the svartálfar could possibly be another description for Niðavellir ("dark fields").
