Thor (Tor) Germanic god

[@maximilliangermanic3229]

We germanics need to take back our own beliefs and gods! lets honor our ancestors.

[@ArvidLuidens]

+Maximillian Germanic Hail to Thor and odin yes we have to

[@smithg7414]

Hail! Yes agreed

[@XCashfull]

+Maximillian Germanic Can I join this union if my ancestors were germans? :O I am hungarian, but my faith is not.

[@This_new_handle_system_sucks]

+Cheyron What language? German, Dutch, Flemish, Frysian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Faroese, Icelandic,...? Since he clearly knows English he already knows a Germanic language anyway. :P

[@This_new_handle_system_sucks]

+XCashfull Yeah you can, no problem, opinions differ on this one, but since you have Germanic ancestry I see no reason why anyone would be against it. I'm not folkish so for me even someone without a germanic ancestral link can worship our gods as long as he knows the culture, the history and feels more connected with it as his own culture, gods and traditions.

[@kennethjansma4329]

Every English speaking muslim invokes the old germanic gods every day of the week. Ask any muslim who's day it is today. It is not allahs or mohammeds day.

[@ImHugoDude]

Hail to THOR and ODIN and greeting to my North warrior

[@AlexaMadeiras]

Hails Thor !!!! Beautifull Video and so happy to hear adorable !!!!!!!

[@AlexaMadeiras]

I shared ur video in all my Pages of face thank u keep doin this lovely workin !!

[@BirkaViking]

@TheodorikTheGoth I have actually no idea about their pronounce of Thor but at Swedish its Tor. So maby they had the same.

[@blueeyedevil9978]

Glorious!!!

[@heisenfeis]

@BirkaViking I where referring to the metal heads that say they are pagans and listen to metal and do metal stuff, Thanks for the name of this music genre :D

[@europabelongstoeuropeanson9173]

some of my ancestors are from Denmark I am from England i am reading about paganism now my culture and roots

[@Svindsson]

@Umbrella0021. The lore varies from region to region. For example, in the Anglo-Saxon lore, Thor survives and becomes king of Asir, not Baldr. However, regardless of what source, I have not heard of any version of the lore saying there shall only be one god after Ragnarok. Many agree about Baldr's return, but many of the younger gods, such a Magni, Modhi, Vidar, and some others also survive in those same stories.

[@BirkaViking]

Khorne676 : Well the Rus who founded Russia was vikings who mixed with the slavic tribes after 2-4 generation. But its looks like the Norse and Slavic and also Celtic mythologi has much common. Cheers

[@nihonjin19]

great and interesting video,nice music..

[@redwolf7929]

This is my favourite video. Ragnarok and the rebirth of the universe great song great video

[@hsmissviking]

My favourite Norse god :) Great effects on the video!

[@IdelUralState]

@IRoXXI The term "Türk" derives from "Türük", it is a philosophical term originated from the pre-Turkic Peoples in regions of the Altai and Baikal around 500 b.c., it means "In Creator believing Race/People". The chinese term for Turks was "T'u-küe" (mightful) and is not dated to 600 a.d., but 1766 b.c..

[@joonte1010]

@ByabyaChannel I dont think the Scandinavians pronounced Tor as "For" (Thor) back in the old days.

[@Svindsson]

@Svartalfgeist Ha, you know, I never even though of that before. I started using that term years before I even had heard of Lovecraft's work.

[@warrenharding429]

Courage, truth, honor....

[@IdelUralState]

@IRoXXI „The descendants of the Turko-Scythians in the north of the black sea and the caspian sea are appearing during the centuries with different variations of names; the name of the Khazars is one of the most famous names of them.“ (Karl Friedrich Neumann, Die Völker des südlichen Russlands in ihrer geschichtlichen Entwickelung, B.G. Teubner, 1855, p.99)

[@alarik36]

@TheodorikTheGoth If I would guess-Tunaz. Tyr was probably Tiwaz, the skygod, related to indoeuropean devas, dievs, Zevs etc., all meaning "god"..Frauja-the lord, Frej..

[@MusikAlltid]

It is said that the burial mounds in Gamla Uppsala "belongs" to Oden, Frej and Tor :)

[@soona86]

I love such chants. could anyone please tell me what's the name of this type of songs? or how i can find similar chants?

[@BirkaViking]

@NobelMicha Maby so but Thor is actually a Germanic god that the Germanic tribes believed in. Thats also why we have for an example Thursday (Thors day).

[@wolfie83]

@Red0100 I haven't taken mine off in over 10 years except to repair the string...and even then the hammer was in my hand (I made my hammer and have an oath ring forged to the eye of the hammer).

[@EasternGateGuardian]

MAN WHERE CAN I GET THIS SOUND TRACK?!?

[@BirkaViking]

In Ynglinga saga, Odin is considered the 2nd Mythological king of Sweden, succeeding Gylfi and was succeeded by Njörðr.

[@AlexaMadeiras]

the second?

[@egillivaldason7238]

Ynglinga saga is a euhemerized bastardization of the sacred oral myths. Ynglinga saga was written by Snorri Sturluson and was a Christian. One of Odin's name is Svíðurr and that was where the name of Sweden derives from. Ívaldi, an Alf created by Durin during the primordial age was the king of Sweden. Sweden was named after Odin.

[@DerMaskenfrosch]

@alexthehistorian Zeus, Thor, and Jupiter were basicly the same gods but in different cultures and languages.

[@BirkaViking]

Khorne676: Its from the history channel and whats the diffrents in the Nordic and Slavic world tree then?

[@BirkaViking]

@IRoXXI I agree with you because I know for sure it has lived people in Sweden since 12000bc. Cheers

[@BirkaViking]

Thanks :-) Cheers from Sweden

[@Svindsson]

@Umbrella0021 Additionally, as a heathen myself, and a member of an active community, both person and collective experience has indicated that many of the Old Ones still exist, again, stating that there is more than one god.

[@IdelUralState]

@IRoXXI But lets take other authors. „Based on this descriptions there must have been Turko-Bulgarian clans on the crimean island long before christ.“ (Danīil Avraamovich Khvolʹson, Achtzehn hebraische Grabschriften aus der Krim, Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften, 1865, p.120)

[@MadLark]

@bananenbrotxD In Danish Thor is called Tor, and Thunder is called Torden. So there are some similarities..

[@IRoXXI]

@TheodorikTheGoth In German it's also "Tor". I believe they pronounced Thor like this.

[@SW9800]

I believe that it was specifically 'Woden' in Old English, the stem from 'Wednesday'. Cool stuff

[@BirkaViking]

@NorthernerMatty123 Well actually the Norse are Germanic tribes also only a northerly branch of the Germanic tribes.

[@BirkaViking]

Thor is for sure a nordic god but he was also a Germanic god, since the Nordic people are north Germanic people and tribes. And thats why the Nordic countrys still speak north germanic languages. The cognate deity in wider Germanic mythology and paganism was known in Old English as Þunor and in Old High German as Donar, stemming from a Common Germanic *Þunraz (meaning "thunder"). Cheers

[@realmwalker9163]

What song its this ? It calls to me is such a way

[@thekingcody456]

Great vid keep making them.

[@tikitik5]

This song sing's about Thor? Lyric's? do you have?

[@mawrem7]

There is a parallel text with the Aranakya Upanisad Chapter 2 onwards and the Hymiskvitha of the Poetic Edda. In the former the gods are in the sea and ask for drink for which Thor embarks and in the latter they are in the sea and ask for food and are answered by the friendly God. There are thousands of miles between ancient India and ancient Norse country - thought provoking.

[@Sorlendingen82]

did you get the links about Åsatro that i sent you?

[@tophercf508]

How can one pray to Thor or Odin ?

[@MrConorHockey]

Yo, Born & Rasied Germanic Pagan Here!!! And I Remember Most Of This From The Stories And Songs My Parents And GrandParents Would Sing and Read To Me As A Child!! I Still Worship The Gods!!! But I Got No Problems With The Christians, As Long As Someone Is A Good Person We Would Get Along LOL Peace Out :)

[@BirkaViking]

Yes now when you mention that I think I remember that. So you have published that book also?

[@singergrlkam]

I thought he was the Viking god? I need this for a project can someone help?

[@VikingsRBloodyAwsome]

Ok thanks, I didnt know that. I have one more question.. every name that ends with -ar has something to do with warrior, is it the same with the name (older name) of the Swedes, SveAR? Du är väl Svensk förresten? Behövde jag inte skrivit detta på engelska, men men.

[@Blaze90i]

Proud to be Swedish. Hail the North Gods!

[@BirkaViking]

@kenstarr2009 I just sent you a documentary video about the Varangian Rus vikings :)

[@Red0100]

I got a Thor's hammer necklace on my wall, I like to have a little piece of my cultural heritage close to me :)

[@BirkaViking]

Oh thanks man that you like my videos :-)

[@Commando94ita]

What is the language of this song? anyway its very cool!

[@MusikAlltid]

Actually most people believe that it is the burial mounds of three kings. I can't remember who they were but one of them was Adil.

[@sandro-schmitt]

This soundtrack... Who made ? Krauka ?

[@BirkaViking]

@celtic4ever18 Yes The Angles, The Saxons and the Jutes came from Germany and Scandinavia.

[@IdelUralState]

@IRoXXI Turk comes from TURUK = SKY GENDER, we are not chinese xD The word Turk is used by Danīil Avraamovich Khvolʹson as a linguistic idiom.

[@Commando94ita]

in what language is this sung?

[@IRoXXI]

@KipchakTegin but if you say they came from carpathian basin(pannonia etc.) and call them "proto-turks" then you probably mean indogermanics. In this case your "proto-turks" aren't really turks because they mated with mongols etc. and mated over several thousands of years with other tribes and ethnicies. What we call Turk is what came back from Asia to where Turkey is today and not what moved away from europe(In this case Turks may have Germanic ancients)

[@Asger911]

Proud to be Nord! Hail to my people!!

[@kenstarr2009]

@wrathofvengance67 I know it without you :-) That is not about Thor, but about similar words!

[@IdelUralState]

@IRoXXI Prof. Sven Lagerbring wrote in his book: "Our ancestors are Turks who are comrades of Oden. We have got enough evidence on this subject. There are people who want to fool you into thinking they are Goths, or Tyrks. I don't care whether it will be discrediting for me or not. Oden and his comrades were Turks."

[@SW9800]

I concur with Birka; The Danes, Swedes, Germans, English, Austrians, Dutch and Norwegians are all Germanic tribes and have a common ethno-linguistic background

[@BirkaViking]

Cosmospectrvm : Yeah its a really intresting religion. Cheers

[@BirkaViking]

@NobelMicha They who belives, and these gods has a big place in the Germanic culture and countrys.

[@BirkaViking]

nihonjin19: Thanks man :)

[@IRoXXI]

@IdelUralState Lagerbring brought this theory in the 18. century (1750 or something). To this date the archäological abilities weren't that good and today there's no voice of trustable scientists that tries to argue on Lagerbrings theory. Also Lagerbring tried to find similarities between Swedish and Turkish culture and language( old runes etc.) and didn't find that much. Fact is that the Vikings(8. century) went southwards and settled partly in the today's turkish area.

[@BirkaViking]

@hsmissviking Thanks :)

[@BirkaViking]

@renei1970 Yes and thanks :)

[@VikingsRBloodyAwsome]

It is said that Oden created Sveariket(Sweden) I know this is about Tor but ill write this anyway..

[@TheAlmightiest]

Most people in Europe inspired each other in one way or another. Like the greeks inspired the romans and so on.. But the Norse take on and development of the many differrent mythologies travelling throughout Europe around these times resulting in the norse/viking religion and mythologies is similar but still different from the Germanic mythologies and religion. The spread of the actual pure Norse/viking mythologies in south of Scandinavia was still very limited.

[@BirkaViking]

flyboysky: Thanks man look at more info. Cheers

[@another90daystochangethis34]

Jormungandr looked badass.

[@ДиванныеВойска-о2ю]

Lets the game begin

[@Svartalfgeist]

Old Ones? Sounds Lovecraftian.

[@IRoXXI]

@KipchakTegin first of all, if this culture is called "Cucuteni-Tripolie" then it's name is obviously not "Turk". And the name "Turk" is first arrived in world history in chinese chronicals about a clan of nomads called "T'u-küe" in the 6. century. Their exact heritage isn't known. But it's a fact that they're from asia. The "Cucuteni-Tripolie" are from the area around Serbia and "Rumänien" and arrived in 4800 before Chr. .Between these thousands of years they can't be your "personal" ancients

[@KajDalfall]

@NobelMicha Most People have some kind of god. This god, one of the of the Norse/germanic Gods is mine and this religion isnt big today but it is ours.

[@IRoXXI]

@IdelUralState There maybe existed a group of nomads in China like the Mongols who have similarities to the "modern" Turks or Turkey , but they have NOTHING to do with Indogermanic ethnicies or their culture. In the area of Europe the Turks came up in the 12. century because this was the time when the Turks invaded Byzanz(Constantinopel, renamed it to Istanbul). The Turks never travelled far enough to the north to possibly be ancients of the Germanics who lived there 1000's of years before.

[@BirkaViking]

Oh ok, Well Britt and Britta isent common at all today. I think it was more common in the 30-50s up here.

[@martinan22]

A more likely explanation is that they belong to a dynasty that moved to sweden after the collapse of the Atilla empire. Being armed with cultures that had been changed by the long contact with and struggle against rome. Meaning they had a new political system with kings that controlled professional soldiers. The more pristine germanic culture of the people in sweden were no match for them so they could create an unparalelled political centre.

[@BirkaViking]

@heisenfeis Problably but this isent metal its Wardruna ;)

[@jacobverona]

thor was a viking god?

[@HolgerLovesMusic]

Vikings were germanic.

[@jacobverona]

ok thank you, can you tell me what other countires where germanic?

[@HolgerLovesMusic]

asawiki.de/public/f/f8/Germanen_uebersicht.jpg Here is a map

[@jacobverona]

is england germanic? btw thanks alot for the map

[@HolgerLovesMusic]

jacob verona Part germanic, part celtic, part franc/gaulic.

[@heathen-greaser]

hail thor

[@thekingcody456]

Norse and Germanians were basically the same they both worshiped the gods and goddesses just some had deferent names.

[@BirkaViking]

No Thor is the same as Doner in old German. The Norse tribes are north Germanic tribes and all Germanic tribes worshiped Thor.

[@kenstarr2009]

Thor's hammer Mjolnir and Russian word Molnija what means the lightning! MJOLNIR and MOLNIJA are similar to each other. Probably, these two words have common roots. (please, don't read molnija as molnidzha, because j = i (short i) in Russian :D)

[@Cahalith1991]

@TheodorikTheGoth probably Donàr.

[@alexthehistorian3781]

Zeus and Thor I believe it was the same person. They are the same god.

[@deathroman13]

@NobelMicha Have a little respect for the Germanic culture. Greetings from a Germanic :)

[@BirkaViking]

Yes not all Norse people was vikings but all Norse people was a north Germanic people.

[@IRoXXI]

Tuesday= Tyrs day, Wednesday = Wotans day, Fryday= Freyas day, Sunday and Monday are for sun and moon. Germanics hunted at night and rested at day so sunday stands for the "day the Germanics rested" and the monday for the first working day.

[@datiswatikjezeg]

@GermanicWarrior1 The Dutch too.

[@IRoXXI]

I also don't know how to evaluate german historian's book's from the 19th century about other's culture's history. I don't think it's too precise and the informations are certainly not well gathered. Especially because the Turks had to be dominant over the majority of other tribes in their own country as a foreign tribe. Maybe they needed the help of their economical partner to establish their culture in this region as legitime("neutral" Historians shall write books about a long turk history)

[@IRoXXI]

@IdelUralState How do you come to the name "Turk". "Turk" comes from "T'u-küe" and this name approached for the very first time in chinese chronicals in the 6. Century after Christ. And why do you(all who say Turks lived in Europe for thousands of years before Germanics) speak of "Proto-Turks", "Bulgarian-Turks", "Russian-Turks" ? The name "Turk" did NOT exist for ANY cultural group before the 6th century. There may partly lived some ancients of you in these regions but they weren't "turks".

[@alexthehistorian3781]

@DerMaskenfrosch Yes I believe that's the truth

[@BirkaViking]

Well the Norse are north Germanic tribes and thats why our countrys still are north Germanic countrys there we speak north Germanic languages. All Germanic tribes had the same gods. Cheers

[@trygveblacktiger597]

For Germanics isnt it Donar

[@Schwarzstern]

It is.

[@Grunk111]

Depends on the language, Tor is the normal insular nordic version, Thor is the English, in German it's Donar. They have have the same proto-germanic root.

[@mikemoos]

I believe Thor and Tyr were the same deity at some early point. It got split up over time. I read that somewhere, don't take my word for it.

[@another90daystochangethis34]

Thor is the English word now thanks to the Danish invaders but the original name was Thunor. Thor is the Scandinavian variant.

[@BirkaViking]

Oh intresting :-) Well I have actually never listening much to Wagner. So I dont know much about him.

[@Eloquent444]

I am Nordic, jag är svensk. Vi talar ett germanskt språk men utseende mässigt tycker jag inte att vi är lika tyskarna etc. Thor var en nordisk Gud inte en Germansk.

[@danman2316]

Thor was only one of many known names of the god of thunder. Thor -> North Germanic (Nordic). Donder or Donar for West Germanic (Germany, Netherlands etc.)

[@Schwarzstern]

Sorry to disappoint you. But your "Vikings" weren't nothing but northern Germanic tribes.

[@scapivion]

Germanic tribes had little to deal with Thor the norse god of thunder... Germanic tribes were terrified of the norse cuz of there raids...
