The Days Of The Week Are Named After Viking GODS
There were only a few people who knew about the Norse gods that the Vikings worshipped was a part of our daily lives. On the calendar, we knew the name of the days that was Monday to Sunday. However, it was a reference to the names of the specific Norse gods like the great raven god Odin or was also known as Woden. Still, on this day, it was now Wednesday. If we compared the two words, we could see that Wednesday was Woden’s Day. Not only Wednesday that had been used on the name of the Norse god. There was also Tuesday, and Friday was named after Tyr and Frigg, these two were the god and goddesses of the Norse. Also, the famous Thor, the god of thunder, was used in the calendar. The mighty god had become Thursday in our era. We knew that the Vikings culture was lost in time, but it was interesting to say that some of their belief was carried over in our current age.
