Sigrdrífa
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Sigrdrífa gives Sigurðr a horn to drink from.
In Norse mythology, Sigrdrífa was one of the valkyries. She appears in Sigrdrífumál as the mentor of Sigurðr. In the Poetic Edda she is identified with Brynhildr. Some scholars have doubted that this identification is original, seeing the roles of mentor and lover as too distinct to belong to the same character.
