This profile represents the amalgamation of two theories of the fatherhood of Odin:

• Bor, the progenitor of mankind, documented in legendary sources
• Friallaf, the father of Odin the Turkish immigrant, documented in Ynglingesoga

Friallaf is also spelled Fridulf, fridleif, Frithwald and many other variants.

Bor

by Micha F. Lindemans

Bor is a primordial Norse man, the son of Buri. He married the giantess Bestla, who is a daughter of the frost giant Bolthorn. Bor and Bestla had three children who became the first gods: Odin, Vili, Ve.

Friallaf

The Prologue to the Younger Edda and the ancestry lines in "Hvorledes Norge ble bosatt" (out of Flateyarbok) lists a father named Friallaf, part of the legend that Odin was a king arriving in the Nordics out of east Turkey. The "Hvorledes Nore ble bosatt" says:

"Munnon eller Mennon het kongen over Troja. Han var gift med Troanam, datter til kong Priami: sønnen hans het Tror, som vi kaller Tor, hans sønn var Loriche, som vi kaller Hlorride, hans sønn Eredei, som vi kaller Einride, hans sønn Vingithor, han sønn Vinginer, hans sønn Modi, hans sønn Mågi, som vi kaller Magni, hans sønn Seseph, hans sønn Beduigg, hans sønn Atri, hans sønn Trinan, hans sønn Heremoth, som vi kaller Hermod, hans sønn Skjaldin, som vi kaller Skjøld, hans sønn Beaf, som vi kaller Bjar, hans sønn Godolf, hans sønn Burri, som vi kaller Finn, hans sønn Frjalaf, som vi kaller Bors, hans sønn Voden, som vi kaller Odin. Han var Tyrkerkonge".

"Finn begat Frithuwulf, who in turn begat Frealaf. Frealaf begat Frithuwald. Great men all." Eldred abruptly stopped speaking. He got to his feet and began pacing the fire, scanning the crowd.

"That sneaky Frisian rascal, King Folc, has named his sons Finn and Frithuwald. He claims that Woden was a Frisian and his ancestor. Well, maybe Woden was indeed Folc's ancestor. Woden loved fighting, drinking, and womanizing, in that close order. Woden passed more than a few times through Frisia. So I will grant his claim to Woden as an ancestor. But to say that Woden was Frisian born is the height of untruth. I am tempted to beat the next Frisian I meet and tell him to pass the same message on through to the mangy rascal that he has for a king! After tomorrow's performance, of course."

Lóriði

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(Redirected from Loridi)

Jump to: navigation, search

Lóriði is the son of Thor and Sif and forefather of Norse rulers, according to the prologue of the Prose Edda. Loridi does not appear in any other instance of Norse mythology.

One should note that the author of the Prose Edda Snorri Sturluson was a christian and he used the prologue to explain how the norse pagans came to believe what they did. The prologue allowed Snorri the framework to assert that he was a christian before going on to relate the potentially heretical pagan tales of the norse gods in the Gylfaginning. Snorri posits the theory that many of the heroes from ancient city of Troy came to Scandanavia and were revered as gods and demigods.

For these reasons Lóriði should not be considered the son of the mythical Thor. Lóriði is not an actual part of the ancient norse myths.

-Near the earth's centre was made that goodliest of homes and haunts that ever have been, which is called Troy, even that which we call Turkland. This abode was much more gloriously made than others, and fashioned with more skill of craftsmanship in manifold wise, both in luxury and in the wealth which was there in abundance. There were twelve kingdoms and one High King, and many sovereignties belonged to each kingdom; in the stronghold were twelve chieftains. These chieftains were in every manly part greatly above other men that have ever been in the world. One king among them was called Múnón or Mennón; and he was wedded to the daughter of the High King Priam, her who was called Tróán; they had a child named Trór, whom we call Thor. He was fostered in Thrace by a certain war-duke called Lóríkus; but when he was ten winters old he took unto him the weapons of his father. He was as goodly to look upon, when he came among other men, as the ivory that is inlaid in oak; his hair was fairer than gold. When he was twelve winters old he had his full measure of strength; then he lifted clear of the earth ten bear-skins all at one time; and then he slew Duke Lóríkus, his foster-father, and with him his wife Lórá, or Glórá, and took into his own hands the realm of Thrace, which we call Thrúdheim. Then he went forth far and wide over the lands, and sought out every quarter of the earth, overcoming alone all berserks and giants, and one dragon, greatest of all dragons, and many beasts. In the northern half of his kingdom he found the prophetess that is called Síbil, whom we call Sif, and wedded her. The lineage of Sif I cannot tell; she was fairest of all women, and her hair was like gold. Their son was Lóridi, who resembled his father; his son was Einridi, his son Vingethor, his son Vingener, his son Móda, his son Magi, his son Seskef, his son Bedvig, his son Athra (whom we call Annarr), his son Ítermann, his son Heremód, his son Skjaldun (whom we call Skjöld), his son Bjáf (whom we call Bjárr), his son Ját, his son Gudólfr, his son Finn, his son Fríallaf (whom we call Fridleifr); his son was he who is named Vóden, whom we call Odin: he was a man far-famed for wisdom and every accomplishment. His wife was Frígídá, whom we call Frigg.

'Borr or Burr (sometimes anglicized Bor or Bur) was the son of Búri and the father of Odin in Norse mythology. He is mentioned in the Gylfaginning part of Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda. Borr is not mentioned again in the Prose Edda. In skaldic and eddaic poetry Odin is occasionally referred to as Borr's son but no further information on Borr is given. Other sources are silent. The role of Borr in the mythology is unclear and there is no indication that he was worshiped in Norse paganism.' -------------------- Possible Child: Woden (Wodan Odin) of ASGARD Alternative Fathers of Possible Child: Marbold (Marbod Harbod) (King) of Saxon ; Frealaf (Frithuwald's son) Alternative Fathers of Possible Child: Marbold (Marbod Harbod) (King) of SAXONS ; Frealaf (Frithuwald's son)
