Thor’s Hammer, Mjolnir, is the most iconic object from Norse mythology.
This was true in Viking times as well as today. Mjolnir is by far the most common Viking amulet found, and its use survived well into the Christian period as a symbol of continued allegiance to the old faith.
But where did Mjolnir, the hammer of the god of Thunder, come from and why was it special?
Mjolnir, pronounced “me-yol-neer”, found its way into the hands of the god of thunder thanks to the machinations of Loki, according to Norse mythology. As a prank, Loki cut off the beautiful golden blond hair of Thor’s wife Sif, removing every strand so that it would never grow back. An angered Thor demanded that Loki replace the hair with something as fine, or face the consequences.
