Serpent Pendant Gørding Sterling Silver On February 2019, near Gørding, Denmark, Jean Stokholm and Doris Birch Mathiesen found a beautiful gold pendant with a coiled snake Foto: Jean Stokholm https://sydvestjyskemuseer.wordpress.com/category/uncategorized/page/2/ Foto: Sydvestjyske Museer This beautiful serpent pendant is small, only 25mm long, and is incredibly decorated with a very small filigree My replica is almost a 1:1 (27mm) The pendant was hung on a wire which was fastened with a thong or string. The pendant contains two green glass beads. Coiled snake pendants are known from the Late Germanic Iron Age and the Viking Age. Perhaps the pendant depicts a mythical serpent Jörmungandr also known as the Midgard Serpent or World Serpent. Jörmungandr is a sea serpent, the middle child of Loki and the giantess Angrboða. In Norse mythology, serpents and dragons embody the destructive phase of the creation-destruction cycle. This means that they represent chaos and cataclysm, but also change and renewal.
