Ask and Embla were the first man and woman in ancient Germanic mythology, similar to Adam and Eva in Jewish mythology.
When the god Odin and his brothers Vili and Vé created the world, they were walking along the seashore and found two tribes. Odin gave them life and breath, the Vili reason and form, speech, sight and hearing. They were given Midgard to live, and Ask ("ash") and Embla ("elm") became the ancestors of all people.
