Symbol 24:55

2428

24:55 · This is the most common graphical structure representing Thor's hammer Mjölner, a symbol from the time of the old Aesir religion, whose last approximately 400 years coincided with the Viking era. Tor, son of Oden (anglosaxon Woden), was the second highest of the Nordic gods. He is often depicted slammering over the clouds of the heavens in his chariot drawn by two he-goats. Thunder was known as Thordön, that is the roar of Thor.
    Mjölner appears engraved on stones, or hammered or cast in metal for use as an amulet.
