The White Raven: Not so rare as one would think, interesting facts in the picture (above). I wonder if it’s possible to have one as a pet? Or an even more interesting thought, what did the Norsemen think if they came across one of these?.

What the Norse Gods Actually Looked Like (Probably)
Thought I’d put these all in one post just to make promoting it easier. For more detailed descriptions on the thought process for each one, see the individual posts below.

Velkomin, vinir mínir! (Welcome, my friends!)
I have made some serious revisions to the (Family) Saga List that I made once upon a time. Many of you are already familiar with that list (likely from this post), but even so, this one has much more to offer! It really is an entirely new list in several ways: revised preface, new location, new format, new organization, additional information, etc. I am confident that this list will not only be easier to use, but also more practical for fellow historians and academics. I will, of course, be constantly revising this list and its content, but I highly encourage all of you sagas fans out there to check out this new edition of The Sagas and Where to Find Them!
Skál! 🇮🇸 (Cheers!)
