The frost-giants (rimethurses) are the primeval giants (gigantes) of the Teutonic mythology, so called because they sprang from the frost-being Ymir, whose feet by contact with each other begat their progenitor, the "strange-headed" monster Thrudgelmir (Vafþrúðnismál 29, 33).
From the Hvergelmir fountain there the Elivágar rivers flowed to the north and became hoar-frost and ice, which, melted by warmth from the south, were changed into drops of venom, which again became Ymir, called by the giants Aurgelmir (Vafþrúðnismál 30-31; Gylfaginning 5).
Thrudgelmir begat Bergelmir countless winters before the earth was made (Vafþrúðnismál 29; Gylfinning 7).

Turtles dig holes for their eggs, and Thor dug deep pits in search of metals and precious stones, as related with literary embroidery in Mesopotamia's saga of Ninurta and the Turtle.
