Description GODDESSES NERTHUS – 2oz Cast Silver Bar Beautiful, commanding and unyielding… such were the Germanic Goddesses, who played a fundamental role in the world of deities, kings, warriors and beasts. They performed guardian functions, presided over various aspects of life and nature, and were linked to combat and the fate of men. The heroines of the new series of Silver Cast Bars from Germania Mint will bring you to a world full of feminine power, magic and desire. FINAL RELEASE – NERTHUS Nerthus, goddess of fertility, earth, and nature, was worshiped as the protector of crops and the cycles of life, ensuring abundant harvests and peace among her followers. It was believed that when she was among the people, all conflicts ceased, and the land yielded plentifully. Each year, during sacred rituals, priests would carry her statue in a procession around the island where she resided. The statue was placed on a flower-adorned cart, drawn by white cows, symbols of fertility. This ceremony was meant to secure the earth’s abundance for the coming summer. After the procession, Nerthus’ statue was ritually cleansed by slaves, who were then sacrificed, symbolizing her purification after the sacred rites.
