Viking Yule Gifts

Popular Viking Gifts for Yule

In Scandinavia they don't call it Christmas, instead they still retain the old pagan name for the Yuletide celebrations which they call Jul (pronounced Yule).

Yule was a pagan festival that followed the midwinter solstice (usually around 21st December) and celebrated the return of the sun as the days slowly started to get longer again. The festivities, which involved lots of drinking and consuming of slaughtered animals, lasted up to 12 days, hence the 12 days of Christmas.
