Yule Log
Before they were Christians, the Norse burned an enormous yule log
to honor Thor, god of thunder. Afterwards, they made it a
part of
their Christmas celebrations. Scandinavian countries
adopted the word "yule" to mean Christmas and in other countries the
word for Christmas actually means "log evening". In England,
it is considered lucky to keep a small, unburned piece of the yule
log to light next year's log.
