One reveals that Yamnaya were disproportionately male and had low life expectancy.
The other shows that Yamnaya are the most common steppe barrow builders, with iron age Scythian peoples building fewer. Medieval Turkic tribes preferred to reuse old barrows

The Helgakviða Hundingsbana II shows us the kind of intercession our ancestors would have asked for, and expected, from the Gods; when Dagr prayed to Odin for revenge on his father’s killer, Odin gave him his spear.
This shows us another tenet of the Germanic pagan worldview; they didn’t ask that the Gods enact revenge or strike down their enemies on their behalf, but rather, aid them in righteous actions they had set in motion.
Painting by Knut Ekwall, 1876.

This Vendel era ring sword pommel from Endre parish, Gotland, has an interesting motif of two figures, seemingly looking upward with bird or animal like jaws while grasping the start of the twisting snake like animals which terminate in the heads of wild boars.

"When we cannot find the boundary between the inner and the outer, there is nothing to be done but give truth the credit, and say that the body is a part of the soul, or even the soul itself. The moment we grasp a stone firmly in the hand, we have grasped the soul of the stone—it is the soul we can feel. It is always possible for the body to be sucked up by the soul and vanish away, to emerge into the light again some other time. The spiritual can leave the material to reveal itself under other forms, but when it does appear and lets itself be seen, heard, and felt, then the manifestation takes place in virtue of that nature the soul possesses. However far away it may go, it still has matter bound up in it. To a certain degree, it is possible to speak of soul and body, but the distinction does not go so deep that it is possible to wrench the one from the other."

The modern mind, due to Plato's influence, finds it hard to discuss the Germanic equivalent of the soul without distinguishing it from the body.
