Raven Floki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Raven Floki
Raven Floki also known as Nevar Ikolf. His life is documented in several Sagas’ from northern Europe most in connection with the ancient Tribes of Archenal and the Norwigge. His origin is unknown as it seems he was not from Northern Europe himself but perhaps Asia or the Middle East; he is known as a Magi and historian. We owe several documented accounts to Raven Floki which tells us of the northern tribes that existed before the Viking’s. These documents were recently discovered by a Professor Sturluson in the 1920’s; his life was dedicated to the study of these documents which were in fact a collection of poems and Saga’s dated to about 800 AD. He concluded that although the manuscript dated to 800 AD, the actual stories were older perhaps 500 years older. Raven Floki is attributed as the author of much of the work, a questionable fact as he appears in several of the Sagas’ himself. What happened to Raven is unknown and all we have left of his work are these afore mentioned ancient documents.
