Kissa

Kissa (918 - ?) is mythical viking hero who dwelt in the petty kingdom of Agder, which approximates to the area today bounded by the two counties of Vest-Agder and Aust-Agder in southern Norway.

Although a matter of much controversy, the Agder School contends that Kissa is another name for the much better known character, the Kassemann (Old Norse: Kassir Manur), who is featured in the Sagas of Fiddur Egs Pressen. The Kasseman is frequently referred to as the Norwegian Hercules and denotes a virile, masculine male in his physical prime, distinguished by pectorial muscles particularly voluminous relative to body-mass index (BMI).

"Kissa" is also finnish word. It means cat.
