In modern Sweden, as well as Norway, a trollkors or troll cross is a bent piece of iron worn as an amulet to ward off malevolent magic. Although commonly thought of as a part of Swedish folklore, it was first created—as an item of jewelry—by the smith Kari Erlands from western Dalarna. It is said to have been copied from a protective rune found at her parents' farm, and it does bear some resemblance to the othala rune in the Elder Futhark.
