“Medvede Vedia vol. 1”

In Scandinavia, there was a firm belief in the ability of some people to change into or assume the characteristics of bears. English word “berserk” comes from this legend. It was thought that if a warrior was to don a bear-skin shirt (called a bear-sark) which had been treated with oils and herbs, that the warrior would gain the strength, stamina, and power of the animal. These people would be driven into a frenzy in battle and were said to be capable of biting through the enemy’s shields or walking through fire without injury. No matter how much of the legend is true, the thought of a group of Vikings made up as bears is sobering.
