[gothic-l] Suartuas - the ON Connection

[Bertil Haggman]

Troels,

Have checked SAOB, 32nd vol, Lund, and Surt
is not listed while Surturbrand is connected to the
fire giant Surtr that in Norse mythology started Ragnaroek,
in turn connected to fnv. svartr (Icelandic svartur).
There should be more under svart in SAOB.

Gothically
