Consistent with this is a helmet plate from <a href="/w/index.php?title=Vendel_grave_XIV&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Vendel grave XIV (page does not exist)">Vendel grave XIV</a> in Uppland that depicts two warriors with bird-crest helmets, one of which also has boar tusks, suggesting it is the armour that makes them a representation of the animal. People in medieval Germanic literature can be referred to as boars such as <a href="/wiki/Ragnar_Lo%C3%B0br%C3%B3k" class="mw-redirect" title="Ragnar Loðbrók">Ragnar Loðbrók</a> in his <a href="/wiki/Ragnars_saga_lo%C3%B0br%C3%B3kar" class="mw-redirect" title="Ragnars saga loðbrókar">eponymous saga</a>. In the case of <a href="/wiki/Kjalnesinga_saga" title="Kjalnesinga saga">Kjalnesinga saga</a>, a warrior is specifically described as having boar-like teeth when fighting. While <span title="Old Norse-language text"><i lang="non">úlfheðnar</i></span> and berserkers are frequently in service to kings, they are commonly portrayed negatively, instead of as noble heroes, and lacking control over their actions. On the other hand, identification or comparison with a wild boar is positive and closely associated with the warrior elite. The distinction has been suggested to result from bears and wolves being predatory, while boars, though fierce and often fighting to the death when cornered, forage rather than hunt.<sup
