Academy of Saint Gabriel Report 416

This report is available at http://www.s-gabriel.org/416

Some of the Academy's early reports contain errors that we haven't yet corrected. Please use it with caution.

Greetings,

Here's the information we found on the name "Yggson."

"Yggr" is a psuedonym for Odin, and wasn't used by human beings in period. However, we did find the name "Uggr," which would produce "Uggson," and "Yrr," which would produce "Yrson." (1)

Tangwystl verch Morgant Glasvryn, Talan Gwynek, and Tangwystl verch Morgant Glasvryn contributed to this letter.

We hope this has been helpful. If we can be of further assistance, please let us know.

In service,
Alan Fairfax
