This is a picture of an archaeological site or a monument in Sweden, number Jäder 39:1 in the RAÄ Fornsök database. |
Image taken from Nordisk familjebok.
The Ramsund carving in Sweden depicts
1) how Sigurd is sitting naked in front of the fire preparing the dragon heart, from Fafnir, for his foster-father Regin, who is Fafnir's brother. The heart is not finished yet, and when Sigurd touches it, he burns himself and sticks his finger into his mouth. As he has tasted dragon blood, he starts to understand the birds' song.
2) The birds say that Regin will not keep his promise of reconciliation and will try to kill Sigurd, which causes Sigurd to cut off Regin's head.
3) Regin is dead beside his own head, his smithing tools with which he reforged Sigurd's sword Gram are scattered around him, and
4) Regin's horse is laden will the dragon's treasure.
5) is the previous event when Sigurd killed Fafnir, and
6) shows Otr from the saga's beginning.
