Sources for Nordic Mythology The most important sources for Nordic Mythology are the Eddas. The Prose Edda written (c. 1220) by Snorri Sturluson and the Poetic Edda , which is a collection of mythological and heroic poems from various times, surviving in an manuscript called Codex Regius The mythology of the Nordic nations is closely related to the mythology of the other Germanic nations that lived in Northern Europe since stone age. Those nations believed in gods which they called Æsir (pl. form of the word Ás which means God) and their belief is called Ásatrú. Its origin and age is not certain. This pagan religion is often loosely mentioned in Greek and Roman writings. Most important of those is the account of Germanic religion written by Tacitus (ca 54-117 AD). Later, after the onset of the middle ages, this religion is more often mentioned in French, English and German writing, written in Latin after these nations became Christian. Noteworthy of those is the writings by Adam of Bremen (ca 1044-1080).

The National Museum of Iceland is currently conducting an archaeological investigation of the farmsite at Reykholt, situated in the valley of Borgarfjörður. This site is linked to the 13th century historian Snorri Sturluson (1179-1241) who is reputed to have written "Heimskringla"- a history of the kings of Norway and the Poetic Edda which teaches poeticmetres and tales of the heathen gods of Germanic mythology. The 1998 season focuses on the old farmsite and the tunnel which leads from "Snorralaug"- the hot pool - to the old farmsite. Visitors are invited to browse through the chapter headings listed below and to take a look at the various pictures taken of the area and the excavation.

It had been discovered when the sportshall was erected in 1934 to the east of the school. No objects are known to have been found in the passage or anything else by which it might be dated.

H@R! : Heritage at Risk ICELAND A well known postulate declaims that Iceland is on the border of the habitable area of the globe. So it may be but this borderline existence has all the same brought about various cultural achievements of great importance both locally and in a wider perspective. Iceland is a volcanically and seismically active area. which represents a great threat to the environment and all living creatures in large parts of the country. The harsh climate also represents various threats to the built environment and can in certain areas indirectly lead to serious danger in the form of avalanches of snow, mud and rocks. Thus Icelandic nature itself, from which the national culture has grown, is at the same time wearing down its physical cultural heritage. The same goes naturally for all other regions of the earth, but under the extremities in Iceland the threats from the natural environment are as serious and periodically overwhelming as they can be. Written sources tell us about powerful earthquakes in the southern areas of Iceland, which have shaken the earth regularly at intervals of every hundred years, ever since the settlement of the country. The same sources describe serious damage done to buildings and other built constructions in large areas. Time and again nearly every farmstead was damaged and many were totally ruined near the origin of the earthquakes. In 1786 the bishopric in Skalholt, which is in the middle of southern Iceland, was damaged by an earthquake to such an extent that it was transferred to Reykjavik which is situated in a less seismically active part of the country. The same area was again shaken by a powerful earthquake in 1896 and still again in the summer of 2000. In the meantime modern technology has made it possible to construct houses which resist the forces of earthquakes, and buildings erected in the latter part of the 20

Practice primarily consists of honoring the Gods and Goddesses from a polytheistic perspective, and also numerous honoring spirits and helpful beings. There are Nine Worlds, including the world of humans (Midgard) and the world of Gods (Asgard). The World Tree connects all the Nine Worlds, and binds them together. There are different afterlife options, depending upon which Gods one followed in life, what type of person one was, how one died and other factors. Practice The primary ritual is known as the blot (long "o" sound, to rhyme with float), and in its simplest form consists of an offering, typically of drink. Blots are generally performed to a single Deity or group of beings (land spirits, ancestors, honored dead). It would be very unusual to honor a God/Goddess pair as is commonly done in Wicca. Despite the very basic form, a blot can become very elaborate, and include lengthy invocations to the Deities, readings of appropriate material, rune divinations, magical workings, and even dramatic reenactments of the myths.

GYLFAGINNING (The Deluding of Gylfi) The Astronomical Material by Snorri Sturluson translated by Carl E. Anderson Introduction The Translation Storybook Adaptation The Introduction The myths and legends of the ancient Scandinavians survive better than those of any other Germanic people. This is largely thanks to the Icelanders, who, not long after they were converted to Christianity, developed the most extensive vernacular literature of any medieval society. At first their writings were largely concerned with Christian religious materials, but in time they became interested in writing about their own culture and history as well. The most famous medieval Icelandic writer was Snorri Sturluson (1179-1241). He wrote a number of books, including one best known as the Prose Edda , which contains a great deal of Scandinavian mythological material. Snorri was a great poet as well as a great writer, and he preferred an old-fashioned kind of poetry that made much use of the pre-Christian Scandinavian mythological material. During Snorri's times, however, the Christian Church strongly discouraged anything that was connected with the heathen past. Partially because of this, the kind of poetry Snorri liked was becoming unpopular and was being replaced by new styles of poetry. Snorri wrote the Prose Edda as an instruction manual on how to write the kind of old-fashioned poetry he liked. He included lots of the old myths and stories so that people would know how to use them in the poetry. As a Christian himself, Snorri did not want to present the myths as if he believed them. So he started the

32. Viking Religion A text about the original viking religion and how it relates to asatru today.Category Society Religion and Spirituality Pagan Asatru...... Most of what we know comes from an Icelandic Poet named Snorri Sturluson(1179?1241) who recorded many of the myths and histories of the time. http://www.ragweedforge.com/vikrel.html

Pagan Viking Religion The Pagan Vikings didn't worship in the same sense as Christians. They respected their Gods, honored them, and perhaps made sacrifice to give thanks or ask favor. The Gods were more powerful then men. But they were not all-powerful, or all-knowing, or entirely good. Like men, they ate, fought, played jokes, were deceived on occasion, and eventually would die. They were themselves bound by their fates, and doomed to die at the end of the world. After which, they and the world, are to be reborn and the cycle continued. While we do know something of the general beliefs, we know little of the details of practice. Most of what we know comes from an Icelandic Poet named Snorri Sturluson (1179-1241) who recorded many of the myths and histories of the time. However, he wrote two hundred years after Iceland became Christian, and says little about actual practice. This has caused problems for many individuals and groups who wish to return to the old time Nordic religion. These folks, often called "Asatru", have studied as much as possible of the old religion, and then built from there to fill in the gaps. Some have deliberately added new elements to adapt to modern times. As a result, there are a lot of differences among them.
