Irminism
Irminism is a current of Ariosophy based on a Germanic deity Irmin supposedly reconstructed from literaric, linguistic and onomastic sources. Among other sources the prefix "Irmin" is documented in the Irminsul "great pillar that supports all"/"Columna Universalis Sustenans Omni", as described in Einhards 'Vita Karoli Magni', and informed by Tacitus via a mentioned Germanic tribe name of Hermiones; the Old Saxon adjective irmin being synonymous to "great, strong". As such it may also have been an epithet of later deities like Ziu or Wodan ). Purported evidence also stems from the occurrence of the word "Irmingot", found in the Old High German "Hildebrandslied".
