Hugin and Munin Authentic Battleworn Viking Shield, 24" Wooden Shield Brown
- The large, gorgeous Viking shield we offer here is made of approx. 13 mm thick plywood and elaborately adorned with two ravens. The twin bird motif is a representation of Odins faithful messengers Hugin and Munin (or Huginn and Muninn), a recurring theme in Viking art. In Norse mythology, the ravens fly over Asgard and Midgard and return every evening to the Allfather of the Gods (also referred to as Hrafnss, the "raven god") to tell him everything they have seen and heard.
- The path of the raven is the path of a loner, an outside observer. Collectivization and attachment to material goods are alien to it.
