Haugur

Haugur (plural Haugar) - a burial mound. Inhumation burials were typical of the ancient cult of the Vanir, although sometimes practiced among folk dedicated to the Aesir. Haugar are often places of awe or mystery in Midhgardhur, symbolic gateways to the Underworld, and sometimes occupied by draugar (vide Draugur) or other monsters.
