Did Vikings believe in mermaids

Anonymous

Updated: 8/22/2023

The Vikings believed (and many still do) in gods other than the Christian one. They practiced a spiritual path that revered those gods.

They had seers, herbalists, and practitioners of magic.

They themselves would not have called it "witchcraft", just their spiritual path.
