BJW Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Never seen anybody so happy at giving the wrong answer to what one was! Odin should enlighten him! Now can he tell us what a shieldmaiden was?

BJW Posted April 1, 2023 Author Share Posted April 1, 2023 Wilkin told us all they were female vikings. They were not, they were the servants of Odin who gathered up fallen warriors and transported them to Valhalla and when not doing that were serving those in Valhalla with mead. They were not warriors. A female viking was a shieldmaiden. The Amazons are from Greek mythology and were warriors. The Valkyrie from Norse. 1 2 1 My wife complains I selfishly stop her fulfilling her true ambition - she really wants to be a rich widow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like someone's touched a Thor spot. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
