	~~=== Origin~~ of ~~Constellation ===~~		It is identified with the Hyades (Sigurðsson 2022,<ref>Sigurðsson, G. (2022) ‘How Gylfi’s Illusion Breathes Life into the Sky’, Religionsvidenskabeligt Tidsskrift, 74, pp. 231–246. DOI: 10.7146/rt.v74i.132105.</ref> p. 241).

			Wolves play a significant role in Old Norse mythology, as they are foretold to devour the sun and moon at Ragnarök (Sturluson 2017,<ref>Sturluson, S. (2017) The Edda of Snorri Sturluson. Translated by K. Simrock. Bibliographically updated edition. Stuttgart: Reclam. </ref> p. 25). The Hyades lie along the moon’s path, and their V-shaped arrangement naturally invites comparison with a jaw snapping at the moon. Holmberg (2022,<ref>Holmberg, P. (2022) ‘Watching Star Wars with Viking Age Subtitles: An analysis of cohesion and coherence in the Rök runestone inscription’, Arkiv för nordisk filologi, 137, pp. 231–246. (Publication date: 2 May 2025).</ref> p. 18) further proposes that this wolf-jaw constellation may already have been recorded on the Rök Runestone in the early 9th century.
