Person
Thorwald is a Norse figure commemorated on the Isle of Man through runic cross-slabs, most notably the Thorwald's Cross at Kirk Andreas, which depicts scenes from Norse mythology, including the figure of Odin being consumed by the wolf Fenrir. The cross is one of the finest examples of Norse-influenced art on the Island and dates from the tenth century.
