Map showing the possible location of the original Mirkwood between the Carpathian Mountains and the River Dnieper
Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Map showing the possible location of the original Mirkwood between the Carpathian Mountains and the River Dnieper (Myrkviðr), as discussed by Tom Shippey. The Atlakviða and the Hlöðskviða both mention that Mirkwood is next to the River Dnieper; the Hervarar saga names the Carpathians. If this is correct then Mirkwood forms the border between the Goths and the Huns of the 4th century.
