Mimer – a wise and secretive mythological figure who lives in a well by the tree of life Yggdrasil. Mimer is sent from the Ases to the Vanes by the time of peacemaking between the two groups of Norse gods. The Vanes, however, kill him and send his head to the Ases. By means of herbs and spells, Odin manages to keep Mimer’s head alive and thus is able to receive wisdom and messages from the other world.

Mimer – En klog og hemmelighedsfuld skikkelse i mytologien. Han bor ved en brønd ved træet Yggdrasil. Mimer sendes som gidsel fra aserne til vanerne ved fredsslutningen mellem de to gudegrupper. Men vanerne slår ham ihjel. Mimers hoved sender de tilbage til aserne. Her sørger Odin med urter og trylleformularer for, at hovedet er levende, så han kan modtage visdom og meddelelser fra den anden verden af det.
