Ask dan Embla
Dalam mitologi Norse, Ask dan Embla (dari bahasa Nordik Kuno: Askr ok Embla)—masing-masing laki-laki dan perempuan—adalah dua manusia pertama, yang diciptakan oleh para dewa. Pasangan tersebut tercantum dalam Poetic Edda, yang dikompilasikan pada abad ke-13 dari sumber-sumber tradisional awal, dan Prose Edda, yang ditulis pada abad ke-13 oleh Snorri Sturluson.
