Freya jumps on Hildiswini to meet with Hindla , L. Frohlich (1895).
Hildisvini ( dr. Scand. Hildisvíni , war boar) - in Scandinavian mythology, the boar that the goddess Freya rides when does not use her chariot drawn by cats.
According to The Song of Hündle , under the boar of Hildiswini, Freya disguised her admirer Ottar .
This name was worn by the helmet of the Swedish king Oli ( dr. Андli ), defeated by the Swedish king Adil in a battle on the ice of Lake Venern . Oli was killed in the battle, and Adil got the helmet.
In Beowulf, it is said that a boar wearing a helmet gives protection to the wearer.
