The focus of my study in college and my life's passion. I can give information on nearly every topic, though my expertise is confined to language, religion and political institutions.
Isn't the Norse religion descended from Germanic traditions?Can you tell me about religion? Specifically, did they have a pantheon of gods? Did they worship their ancestors, or spirits of the land and such? Were there specific "holy men" or was anyone allowed to pray/communicate with the higher powers? Did they have specific rituals? And did they have "holy" days (I've always guessed things like the equinox, but I've never been sure)?
