THOR and the Axe-Hammer
The hammer of Thor the thunder god was called Mjölnir. His cult and his hammer are derived from a much older axe-god cult. When the Romans saw the hammer/axe wielding god worshipped by Germanic peoples such as the Suebi, they thought it was Hercules with his club.
3000 year old Rock carvings from Sweden depict a prominent axe wielding figure which is probably Thunaraz, the proto-Germanic Thor.
Even after Christianisation, the Anglo-Saxons still associated Thor, whom they called Thunor with an axe and a Viking era picture stone in Sweden depicts Thor with a club.
