Falcons play a role in the mythology of many peoples. In Norse mythology, the goddess Freya wears a falcon robe, with which she can glide through the air like a falcon or even transform herself into one, depending on the interpretation. The Celts regarded the falcon as a mediator between this world and the afterlife. In Slavic mythology, the falcon (Sokol) is a figure of the sun and light. It is known for its great courage, its sharp eyes and its ability to cover great distances in a very short time. That is why it is especially the bird of warriors (source: Wikipedia).
