Viking God : List By Domain - War - Sea - Death

Viking God : List By Domain - War - Sea - Death

In the pantheon of Scandinavian mythology there are many gods. It is difficult to say the exact number since there are so many.

For the Nordic people, the Gods are divided into two well-distinguished large clans: the Æsir, connected to chaos and war, and the Vanir, connected to nature and fertility.

The Norse Gods are frequently associated with the Jötnar or the Giants. We are going to zoom in on the most famous Viking Gods.

You'll recognize a few, but you'll also discover some you've never heard of.
