A few days ago in the heathenry discord server, Skid, a discussion helped kick off my journey in reconstruction. Wodgar asked 5 specific questions that I will be using to help keep myself focused:

“Where did these people live? Who lived here before them? What cults were present? What artifacts have been uncovered? Are we going to treat this area as a continuum?”

I’ve done some basic reading on the temple at Uppsala’s history and know basic knowledge on the gods. I have a reading list that I am going to start working my way along and organizing my thoughts as I go on this site.
