Norse Mythology

Norse Mythology begun being practised

98

Tacitus's Germania, written around 98 AD, provides an early account of the religious practices of Germanic tribes. Though primarily focused on their customs, social structures, and warfare, Tacitus also describes aspects of their spiritual beliefs.

However, Germania does not extensively cover Scandinavia, as Tacitus’s focus was on the tribes of central and western Europe
