Details

Description

"Drakkar is the plural of dreki which means “dragon” and for this reason, drakkar are also know as dragonships. Contrary to popular belief, not all viking ships were drakkar, but the name comes from the carved dragon heads that were attached to the stem, and also other dragon motifs that could be found carved all over the ship. The dragons were a popular symbol among the sailors for various reasons. Being a mythical creature that inspires awe, only the most fierce warriors used the dragon as their house symbol, so it was a sign of social status, and also believed to scare enemies away. Also, due to Jӧrmungandr, the giant serpent who is the middle child of Loki and lives in the ocean that surrounds Midgard. It grew so large that it encircles all the world of men and holds its own tail in its mouth, and if it ever releases, Ragnarok will begin. Jormungandr was the biggest fear of the Viking sailors who believed that they could appease it by decorating their ships with images similar to it’s own, granting them safe passage across the oceans.
