In Norse mythology, Hœnir is one of the Æsir. He is mentioned as the one who helped Odin to create humans. == Attestations == In ''Ynglinga saga'', along with Mímir, he went to the Vanir as a hostage to seal a truce after the Æsir-Vanir War. There, Hœnir was indecisive and relied on Mímir for all of his decisions, grunting noncommital answers when Mímir was absent. In ''Völuspá'', at the creation of the first human beings, Ask and Embla, Hœnir and Lóðurr help Odin. According to the ''Prose Edda'', Hœnir is said to have given reason to man.〔MacCulloch, J.A.(2005). The Celtic and Scandinavian Religions. Cosimo, Inc. ISBN 1-59605-416-6.〕 'In ''Gylfaginning'', Vili and Vé are mentioned instead. As Snorri knew ''Völuspá'', it is possible that Hœnir was another name for Vili. Also according to ''Völuspá'', Hœnir was one of the few gods that would survive Ragnarök. Hœnir also has a minor role in ''Haustlöng'' and ''Reginsmál''. Hoenir crater on Callisto is named after him. ==Notes== 〔 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「Hœnir」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
