		Nerthus (also sometimes Hertha) is a Germanic fertility goddess who was mentioned by Tacitus in his work entitled Germania.

		Nerthus (also sometimes Hertha) was a Germanic fertility goddess described by Tacitus.
		Due to the thousand years that passed between Tacitus's description and the Eddas, the role of Nerthus in early Norse mythology can only be studied through speculation.
		Investigations in this subject have rendered it very probable that the island of Nerthus was Sjælland (Zealand), and it is further to be observed that the kings of Wessex traced their ancestry ultimately to a certain Scyld, who is clearly to be identified with Skiöldr, the mythical founder of the Danish royal family (Skiöldungar).
