'''Yggdrasil''' was, in the period of the OYAP [[Norse Mythology]], the "World [[Tree]]," a gigantic [[ash (tree)|ash]], thought to hold all of the different worlds: such as [[Asgard]], [[Midgard]], [[Utgard]] and [[Hel]]. The name literally means the 'horse of Yggr', i.e. the horse of [[Odin]], since Yggr is one of Odin's many names.
Three roots supported the trunk, with one passing through Asgard, one through Midgard and one through Hel. Beneath the Asgard root lay the sacred [[Well of Urd]], and beneath the Midgard root lay the spring or well of [[Mimir]].
