Flood Stories from Around the World
Scandinavian:Oden, Vili, and Ve fought and slew the great ice giant Ymir, and icy water from his wounds drowned most of the Rime Giants.
4/29/2001: Acawai, Colla, and 3 Inca myths and Gifford reference; slight amendment to Scandinavian myth.
The God Odi, Woden, or Wotan
In the Scandinavian mythology the chief god was Odin, the Woden, Wotan, or Wuotan of the Germans.
The Scandinavian Olympus was probably Atlantis.
The Bronze Age in Europe
"The Phœnicians certainly knew the use of iron, and it can scarcely be conceived why they should have excluded it from their commerce on the Scandinavian coasts.
If they came "from the West" they could not have come from Ireland; and the Scandinavians may easily have mistaken Atlantean books and bells for Irish books and mass-bells.
The Deluge Legends of America
The last thing a people forgets is the name of their god; we retain to this day, in the names of the days of the week, the designations of four Scandinavian gods and one Roman deity.
The Deluge Legends of Other Nations
We also find a vestige of the same tradition in the Scandinavian Ealda.
Maps of Atlantis
The subsidences and upheavals in other parts of the world have also been considerable—the British Islands for example, now being part of a huge island which also embraces the Scandinavian peninsula, the north of France, and all the intervening and some of the surrounding seas.
The Scandinavian island however, appears now as joined to the mainland.
The Story of Atlantis
Tertullian in his De Baptismo says that they were promised in consequence "regeneration and the pardon of all their perjuries." The Scandinavian nations practised baptism of new-born children; and when we turn to Mexico and Peru we find infant baptism there as a solemn ceremonial, consisting of water sprinkling, the sign of the cross, and prayers for the washing away of sin (see Humboldt's Mexican Researches and Prescott's Mexico).
The subsidences and upheavals in other parts of the world have also been considerable—the British Islands for example, now being part of a huge island which also embraces the Scandinavian peninsula, the north of France, and all the intervening and some of the surrounding seas.
The Scandinavian island however, appears now as joined to the mainland.
In the second map period no pure Rmoahals were left on the then reduced mother-continent, but the northern promontory of the continent then rising on the west was occupied by them, as well as the Greenland cape[35] already mentioned, and the western shores of the great Scandinavian island.
Brittany and Picardy then formed part of the Scandinavian island, while the island itself became in the third map period part of the growing continent of Europe.
We also find them occupying the eastern shores of the Scandinavian island, while numbers of them sailed across the ocean, rounded the coast of Africa, and reached India.
A reference to the early inhabitants of our own islands may[41] appropriately be made here, for it was in the early Akkadian days, about 100,000 years ago, that the colony of Initiates who founded Stonehenge landed on these shores—"these shores" being, of course, the shores of the Scandinavian part of the continent of Europe, as shown in Map No.
The Oera Linda Book
Notwithstanding the frequent and various relations with Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, we do not find any traces of acquaintance with the Northern or Scandinavian Mythology.
Frya was appealed to, but the Schoonlanders (Scandinavians) had neglected her advice.
She said, I see no danger in their weapons, but much in taking the Scandinavians back again, because they are so degenerate and spoilt.
Then the Scandinavians, who hungered after the land of their forefathers, came to Denmark.
Finyet (Atlantean) Atlantis, Lemuria, Origins of Humanity
In response to a question about which human races resemble Atlanteans, Jim Charles speculates that people of Scandinavian descent may bear some resemblance to Atlanteans.
The Pyramid, the cross and the Garden of Eden
"It was the sacred Asgard of the Scandinavians, springing from the centre of a fruitful land, which was watered by four primeval rivers of milk, severally flowing in the direction of the cardinal points, 'the abode of happiness, and the height of bliss.' It is the Tien-Chan, 'the celestial mountain-land, .
And these four rivers, as we have seen, we find in the Scandinavian traditions, and in the legends of the Chinese, the Tartars, the Singhalese, the Thibetians, the Buddhists, the Hebrews, and the Brahmans.
It is seen in the treatment of the ash Yggdrasill of the Scandinavians, as well as in that of the Bo-tree of the Buddhists.
The God Odin, Woden, or Wotan
In the Scandinavian mythology, the chief god was Odin, known as Woden, Wotan, or Wuotan among the Germans.
It is plausible that the Scandinavian Olympus was Atlantis.
