The official website of Samfundet Forn Sed Sverige (Community of Forn Sed Sweden), founded 1994, a state-recognized Swedish Heathen organization. Names the three pillars of Swedish Forn Sed practice, blot, gille and ting, and describes the formal toasting round, skalande or a skalrunda, as part of the blot itself rather than a separate sumbel rite.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Tier 3: the organization's own website describing its own tradition's practice and terminology (blot, gille, ting), a tradition's account of its own teaching and practice rather than an independently audited or third-party record. NotesRead via indexed search snippets carrying verbatim Swedish text after the official site returned a rate-limit response to direct access. The organization's own blog post Blot, gille och ting (2013-05-19) and its Blot page were both quoted directly, not just titled, before this citation was written. The organization's chairperson raised a correction to how this source was described.
