Gullinbursti (meaning "Gold Mane or Golden Bristles") is a boar in Norse mythology. When Loki had Sif's hair, Freyr's ship Skíðblaðnir and Odin's spear Gungnir fashioned by the Sons of Ivaldi, he bet his own head with Brokkr that his brother Eitri (Sindri) would not have been able to make items to match the quality of those mentioned above. So to make gifts to Freyr, Eitri threw a pig's skin into a furnace as Brokkr worked on the bellows, and together they manufactured the boar Gullinbursti which had bristles in its mane that glowed in the dark. The story of Gullinbursti's creation is related in the ''Skáldskaparmál'' section of Snorri Sturluson's ''Prose Edda''. According to ''Húsdrápa'', Freyr rode Gullinbursti to Baldr's funeral, while in ''Gylfaginning'', Snorri states that Freyr rode to the funeral in a chariot pulled by the boar. The boar is also known as Slíðrugtanni (sometimes Anglicized to "Slidrugtanni"). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gullinbursti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
