The Old Norse were polytheistic (from the Greek polymeaning "many" and theos meaning "god", thus "many gods"). This means that they believed in and worshipped many deities.

These deities are split into two tribes, the Æsir (pronounced "EYE-seer") and the Vanir (VAHN-eer). The Æsir are the gods of craft and human society, whereas the Vanir are the gods of fertility and magic.

The most famous deities in Norse mythology are Óðinn, Þórr, Týr, Freyr, Freyja, Frigg, and Loki.
