Bullshit!!
Girls don't go to Valhalla (which is equivalent to Christian heaven)...
...actually only warriors go to Valhalla and only if they either was killed in battle or was a great warrior.
It is however not mentioned anywhere that a warrior couldn't be female.
We didn't have many girls up here but the the new rules in the armies has given us a lot of great female warriors... fun is now not only eating pork, drinking mjöd and fighting all the day.

No, they're not. These runes were NOT used during the Viking age. A common problem I find with Amon Amarth artwork.

>>6542668
Amon Amarth rocks plenty of fantasy-tier artwork though, so it's not like incorrect armor would void their band image at this point.

Swastikas are of little importance in the west (north included). It's a simple symbol so it's sighted every now and then, but it's not like the indian cross, runes or thors hammer necklaces.

>>6542141
I hope you don't believe that swastika-style crosses have ever been important enough in the west as to not become completely irrelevant after the third empire. Had it been a thors hammer or a common rune or something it would have been different, but it isn't

Stop this shitty meme.
The hooked cross is a pan-European symbol that has been around in various European cultures for ages. If anything, it is OURS.

>I hope you don't believe that swastika-style crosses have ever been important
For Nordic heathens, it's one of Thor's holy symbols. Despite sensitive idiots recoiling back at the sight of it due to >muh Hitler, it is incredibly common in modern day practises of native European religions, especially Slavic ones.

Also, pic related. A Viking sword.

Faggots.

>>6545907
It's actually a Norman sword, the Vikings just happen to be one of the primary groups that adopted it.

Besides, regarding the sword I mentioned, it is in on display as a Viking sword, dated "800-900" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY.

Okay then, pic related is a DIFFERENT sword, Viking age, found in Uppland, Sweden. Perhaps you can spot any similarities? :^)

The swastika has been a symbol since the stone age and possibly before that. It's commonly associated with the sun. Hence it looking like a sunwheel. Fucking read a book, guys.

Vikings did the same, barbarous shit the rest of Europe (and pretty much the world) did.

They were just good at getting away with it.

>>6550184
A flat swastika represents peace and harmony or some hippy shit, a slanted swastika is the symbol of the Nazi Party. Git gud.

Isn't the swastika just a step up from the primitive shapes, like squares and circles, and thus practically found in cultures all over the world since the stone age? Ofc it's found in norse patterns and shit.
The only connection between whatever swastika on a rune stone an that of the nsdap is just an artificial one for larp purposes.

Did you just try to claim Europe's ownership over what is an undeniably very ancient and very much globally reoccurring symbol?
