Nerthus was one of several Earth-Mother figures. Worship included a sacred wagon cult.
In ancient times Boats were often seen and treated as vehicles of magical action. Here the boat represents passage from one realm to the next.
The idea of containment emphasizes not only the maternal element: “womb and tomb are seen as nest, cradle, bed, ship, wagon and coffin.”
