…In mythology, it appears with an apocalyptic image.

This is interpreted as a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse. … From Norse mythology…Týr, also the son of Odin, was the bravest of the Æsirs. When the gods tricked the wolf Fenrir into putting him in fetters, he was able to thrust his hand into the wolf's mouth as a sign of his victory. In the process, Týr lost one of his wrists. *Some of the terminology that mentions "Fenrir" is listed below. Source | Heibonsha World Encyclopedia 2nd Edition | Information |
