The Thor Hammer or Mjolnir is an ancient Norse symbol, a stylized representation of the legendary weapon of the Norse God Thor. "Mjolnir" means "lightning," and symbolized the God's power. The Thor's hammer was worn frequently by believers as a symbol of protection- a practice so popular it continued even after most of the Norse population had converted to Christianity. In modern times, is often used as an emblem of recognition for members of the Asatru faith, or as a symbol of Norse heritage.
