#SUGA as #Tyr - a thread

Tyr is one of the three gods of war - the one who lays down the law.

As a god of war, Tyr is naturally often depicted with a sword in hand.

One of the symbols associated with Tyr is holly. The plant, but just go with it, as always

Tyr is also associated with Irminsul ("great pillar") - a giant, phallic structure around which humans gathered to worship and pray for fertility.

But the most iconic symbol representing Tyr is the rune for "D"

Tyr is also known as "the one-handed god", since he sacrificed his arm to a greedy beast to keep the other gods safe and successful.

No wonder Tyr is known as the bravest god!

Saying Tyr& #39;s name before attacking was said to grant victory. https://youtu.be/seXNvfgTnsw ">https://youtu.be/seXNvfgTn...

Tyr may be a god of war, but Vikings were civilized people.
Preventing unnecessay loss of lives on a battle field, Tyr is the god of legal duels - metaphorical battles! https://youtu.be/FdW0M0fRnc4 ">https://youtu.be/FdW0M0fRn...

When faced with slander in Norse legends, Tyr keeps a cool head and defends himself and his friends with words instead of violence.

Odin may be the god of wisdom, but Tyr is an older god than Odin and also considered a great source of wisdom himself.

Tyr is the perfect god of assemblies for solving disputes!

As such, it is only natural that Tyr is also the god of JUSTICE.

Finally, you may ask what the meaning of the name Tyr really is...

It simply means "GOD". He& #39;s that ancient and epic.
