The two famous ravens from the Edda, who sit on Odin's shoulders. They fly out into the world every day and return for breakfast to report the news from all over the world to Odin. Therefore, Odin is also called the "Raven God" (Hrafnaguð).

Hugin and Munin are Odin's ravens.

Odin is also known by other names, including Hrafnáss (Raven God).
His two ravens:

• Hugin (Icelandic: Huginn) comes from the Old Norse verb huga and translates as: to think / thought. Hugin reflects on everything he sees and draws his conclusions from it.
• Munin (Icelandic: Muninn) comes from the Old Norse verb muna and translates as: to remember / memory. Munin remembers everything he has seen.

Together they fly through the worlds and in the evening they return to Odin and tell him what they have seen and heard.
In Norse mythology, they are considered mystical and magical beings who, among other things, can distinguish between lies and truth.
This beautiful pewter belt buckle is meant to make us thoughtful, to remind us of Odin's ravens Hugin (thought) and Munin (memory)!
