13. Odin
Examples of resurrection can also be found in Norse mythology. Odin, the all-father of Germanic paganism, had to pay a price for his power and wisdom. He sacrificed himself to access the power and meaning of the runes. He hung himself from a tree and pierced his body with a spear. On the ninth day, he was reborn with the knowledge of the runes.
