Mōtung:Wōden

Similarly, Ammianus Marcellinus most likely references Odin and Thor in his history of the later Roman Empire as Mercury and Mars, respectively, though a direct association is not made. This, however, underlines a particular problem concerning ancient Greek and Roman sources. Historians from both cultures, during all periods, believed the deities of foreign cultures to merely be their own gods under different names. Such an example may be found in Herodotus' association of an Egyptian Ram-headed god (most probably Chnum) with Zeus. Later, Medieval historians followed the older tradition and likewise made such associations. However, there is no historical evidence to suggest that these are valid connections and as such they should not be taken as historical fact.

Why not make two versions of this?

If you think it is hard work to make this article fully Old English, Why not make two articles about Woden: this one(in a mix of modern and old English) and another one completely in Old English? what do you think? ~2025-35519-87 (talk) 00:48, 19 Solmonað 2026 (UTC)
