  "lineage": "Old Norse galdr was a form of magical charm-chanting practiced across Viking-Age and medieval Scandinavia and Iceland, attested in Eddic poems such as Hávamál (the Ljóðatal charm-list), Grógaldr, and Sigrdrífumál. The verb gala ('to crow, screech') gives the genre its name, and the associated meter galdralag (an incantatory variant of ljóðaháttr with a repeated fourth line) marks its heightened, metrically-bound delivery. Charms were intoned by a specialist to bind, heal, curse, or raise the dead, often paired with runic inscription. Modern knowledge derives from the Poetic Edda manuscript tradition and philological reconstruction rather than sound recordings; contemporary Heathen revival practice reconstructs delivery from these textual sources.",
