The Divine Ancestry of Harald Fairhair.
In the first episode of "Sagas w/Shawn - Gods and Kings" Shawn dives into the ancestry of Harald Fairhair, the first King of a Unified Norway (872 ce). Was Harald truly descended from the Norse gods Freyr, Niord, and even the All-Father Odin himself? Or did later authors fabricate these supposed connections to elevate the status of their own culture and history?
Using the sources "Heimskringla", "The Saga of the Volsungs", and "The Saga of Ragnar Lodbrok" (with some others as well), Shawn explore the House of Yngling and the House of Volsung in varying detail to bridge the gap between mythological gods and this historical figure.
