On this day in 793, Vikings raiders make landing at Lindisfarne, England and liberate its monastery of plunder.
The assault brings nearly 300 years of Norsemen raids on English soil.

Only a coward waits to be taken like a lamb from the fold or a fox from a trap.
~Laxdaela Saga

In Norse mythology, Naglfar (Old Norse "nail farer") is a boat crafted from the fingernails and toenails of the dead.
During Ragnarok Loki will navigate it to Vígríðr ferrying Hel, the fire giant Sutr and Jötunn will do battle with the gods.

One of the Viksø helmets, a pair of horned helmets found in 1942 in a peat bog in Zealand, Denmark.
In 2019 birch tar found on the helmet was radiocarbon dated, meaning it found its way into the bog around 900 BC, some 1,500 years before the start of the Viking Age.

In The Odyssey when Odysseus enters Hades, the Greek afterlife to find the prophet Tiresias, he sacrifices a ram and a ewe.
The deceased come forth, thirsty for the recently spilled sheep’s blood, but Odysseus refuses to let any other entity approach until Tiresias drinks and delivers his prophecy.

Up the airy mountain,
Down the rushy glen,
We daren’t go a-hunting
For fear of little men;
Wee folk, good folk,
Trooping all together;
Green jacket, red cap,
And white owl’s feather!
