Ullr, a God from the Æsir lineage, is often depicted skiing and shooting with a bow. Known by various titles, he is believed to live in Ýdalir, “valley of the yews”. He was invoked in possible duels, and in some tales, he held a ring used for oath-taking. Scholars suggest Ullr could be older than thought and might have been highly important in ancient times. For a period, he might have even replaced Odin on the throne. His name potentially means “splendor” or “glory”.
