German for "raven's skull"; the great black birds are famous for their prophetic powers and, as they eyes and ears of Odin can foretell the future. Famous also for their protective powers, for example, in Middle Ages' Christian tradition, even the body of the martyred St. Vincent was forever preserved from desecration by a vigilant raven guard.
