Who is Tyr?
Posted by: Makarios on Monday, January 18, 2010 - 08:00 AM
By Uncle Thor
The references to Tyr are scattered throughout the Germanic, Nordic and Anglo-Saxon lore. These are scant. In some places, evidence shows that Tyr and Odin were worshiped equally. We know that in much of Norway and Denmark, Odin was considered the chief God between 800 and 1100 CE. Other evidence shows that in formerly Viking areas of Scotland, Tyr was either the main God or was worshiped equally. We get the same from Germany. Keep in mind that the designation of chief God is more human preference than a Divine writ. Much of the old lore is human perception of the Gods rather than the revelation of the Gods themselves.
Tyr is referred in one Runic charm as “the oldest God.” Once again, belief is subject to local variances. The Eddas have a myth where Thor helps Tyr recover a cauldron. It tells of Tyr’s parents as being jotuns. This is but a local variant wherein Tyr is not a major deity, but a minor one. In most of the old references, Tyr is a major God and, again, he is regarded as the chief God in several of them.
