Ase , plural Asen, horses have been ancient pre-christian German revered beings (gods, spirits or deities). The Angle Saxon form is assa, assen, M.E. asse, Celtic assan, Latin asinus meaning donkey (small horse).

Aesir is the name of the family of gods headed by Odin. What exactly do they have to do with horses? [] gives ase as an Old German form of "god" from Proto-IndoEuropean "aes" meaning light. Rmhermen 13:06 Aug 22, 2002 (PDT)

On combining this page with the ASA page
[edit]Would it not make sense to combine this page with ASA? three links could easily be incorporated into the ASA disambiguation page. Or move ASA to here, either would work.70.49.36.110 23:22, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Indeed. However, it may be too onerous to find all the links into this page and to update them. As well, in the future people may end up re-creating this page... Instead, I chose to keep both pages, using ASA for the related initialisms and Asa for names. ppblais 03:26, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
