She was the mother of Ull, god of archery, skiing, and single combat. Sif was Thor's second wife, and Ull was his stepson. Sif's golden hair, which symbolized her connection to the fertility of the land and the harvest of grain, was often praised. She was known to be very vain about its beauty. According to legend, Loki, the mischievous trickster fire god, cut off Sif's hair while she slept (in one version, he burns it off). Thor was so angry that he forced Loki to replace Sif's hair with a wig, crafted by the dwarfs and made of the finest strands of gold........Sif, en la mitología nórdica, la esposa del dios del trueno, Thor. Sif era una giganta, diosa del grano y la fertilidad, y una de las Asynjur. Ella era la madre de Ull, dios de la arquería, el esquí y el combate individual. Sif era la segunda esposa de Thor, y Ull era su hijastro. El pelo dorado de Sif, que simbolizaba su conexión con la fertilidad de la tierra y la cosecha de grano, a menudo era alabado. Ella era conocida por ser muy vanidosa sobre su belleza. Según la leyenda, Loki, el pícaro dios tramposo del fuego, le cortó el pelo a Sif mientras ella dormía (en una versión, lo quema). Thor estaba tan enojado que obligó a Loki a reemplazar el cabello de Sif con una peluca, hecha a mano por los enanos y hecha con los mejores hilos de oro.
