Phrenotopia | The Origin of Dragons @Phrenotopia | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 1 day ago
Dragons are legendary beasts found in mythologies from all over Europe and Asia. Ancient stories of giant serpents probably laid the groundworks for what in medieval times developed into dragons. But from these archaic beginnings how did we arrive at the winged, fire-breathing monstrous reptilians that we nowadays imagine when thinking of dragons? That is actually an interesting story!
The video begins with the Norse god Thor trying to slay the middle earth serpent Jórmungandr using his trusted hammer Mjolnir according to Viking lore.
My YouTube buddy Cogito has made an interesting video on how Thor got Mjolnir that you can watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=hdYgWvAceaE
