To wander from cache to cache, spreading some knowledge of Viking/Nordic/Germanic mythology.
In Viking/Nordic/Germanic mythology, Mjolnir (Mjölner) is the hammer of Thor, the god of thunder, lightning, wind and rain. While referred to as a club, an axe, and a hammer, Mjolnir was thought to be capable of toppling giants and entire mountains with a single blow. Miniature replicas of Mjolnir were widely popular in Scandinavia, they were used in Blóts and other sacral ceremonies, such as weddings. Many of these replicas were also found in graves and tended to be furnished with a loop, allowing them to be worn. (Extract from Wikipedia)
