Editing Ullr (section)

===''Prose Edda''===
In chapter 31 of ''[[Gylfaginning]]'' in the ''[[Prose Edda]]'', written in the 13th century by [[Snorri Sturluson]], Ullr is referred to as a son of [[Sif]] (with a father unrecorded in surviving sources) and thus a stepson of Sif's husband, [[Thor]]:

Á hann er ok gott at heita í einvígi.}}<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hi.is/~eybjorn/gg/gg4par23.html|title=Gylfaginning 23-32|work=hi.is}}</ref>

:Ullr, Sif's son and Thór's stepson, is one [too]. He is such a good archer and ski-runner that no one can rival him. He is beautiful to look at as well and he has all the characteristics of a warrior. It is also good to call on him in duels.– ''Young's translation''

In ''[[Skáldskaparmál]]'', the second part of the ''Prose Edda'', Snorri mentions Ullr again in a list of [[kenning]]s, informing his readers that Ullr can be called ski-god, bow-god, hunting-god and shield-god. In turn a shield can be called Ullr's ship. Despite these details, he relates no myths about Ullr, potentially as he did not know of any.{{citation needed|date = August 2022}}
