DEZZY'S HISTORY LESSON
In Norse mythology Thor is a hammer wielding god associated with thunder, lightning, storms, oak trees, strength and the protection of mankind! The emblem of his hammer Mjolnir, was, in the age of Vikings, a sign of defiance against the Christianization of Scandinavia. In the mythology he is married with golden haired goddess of Earth - Sif! In one of the legends, Loki shorns her golden locks after which Thor forces Loki to have a golden headpiece made for Sif! Her golden tresses symbolize the fields of golden wheat.
