Jotunheim (Jötunheimr)

One root stands over the frost giants. Jötunheimr is the giants’ land, and Grímnismál, in Thorpe’s translation, says three roots stand on three ways: Hel under one, the Hrimthursar under the second, mankind under the third. The entry stresses that no source fixes where Jötunheimr lies. One scholar suggests it was never one physical place, another that giants appear in every direction.
