Ingunar-Freyr is the name given to Freyr in the ''Lokasenna'' (43) and in the ''Great saga of Saint Olaf''. It is often assumed that ''Ingunar'' is the West-Germanic equivalent of the Scandinavian ''Yngvi''.〔Lindow, John. 2002. ''(Norse Mythology: A Guide to the Gods, Heroes, Rituals, and Beliefs )''. New York: Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-515382-0.〕 The meaning of ''Ingunar'' remains uncertain. It could be related to the Ingaevones, a Germanic tribe. Another solution is to understand Ingunar as the genitive form of Ingun, who would be a fertility goddess.〔Schröder, Franz Rolf. 1941. ''Untersuchungen zur germanischen und vergleichenden Religionsgeschichte''. Vol. 1, ''Ingunar-Freyr''. Tübingen: J.C.B. Mohr.〕 A close form, ''frea Ingwina'' ("lord of the friends of Ing") is used in ''Beowulf'' (1319), where it refers to the Danish king Hroðgar. ==See also== * Yngvi 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「Ingunar-Freyr」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
