COPENHA GEN. 2 81 THE STORY OF ANCIENT DENMARK. It is a strange, wild romance, the early history of the nations of the North. The Greeks and Romans knew but little about the Scandinavians. Theyknew that there was a people in the regions from which came the north winds.The north wind was very cold. Was there a region beyond the north wind? Ifso, how lovely it must be, where the cold winds never blow. They fancied thatthere was such a region. They called the inhabitants Hyperboreans, or thepeople beyond the north wind. They imagined also that in this region of eter-nal summer men did not die. If one of the Hyperboreans became tired of earth,he had to kill himself by leaping from a cliff. The Northmen, or the inhabitants of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, wereof the same origin as the tribes that peopled Germany, and that came from theEast, probably from the borders of the Black Sea. They were fire-worshippers,and their chief god was Odin. Denmark means a land of dark woods. In ancient time
