Sága, possibly meaning "seeress"[1]) is a Scandinavian goddess associated with the location Sökkvabekkr.
Saga, a blue cheese from Denmark
Icelanders' sagas, prose histories mostly describing events that took place during and following the Age of Settlement.
Originally known as Pockets, Saga formed in 1977 from the nucleus of Canadian rock band Fludd.
Saga is a progressive rock quintet, formed in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. Jim Crichton and Welsh-born vocalist
Michael Sadler have been the principal songwriters for Saga. Ian Crichton is the band's guitarist; apart from
his work with Saga, he has recorded several solo albums as well as sessions with Asia. The band's keyboardist,
Jim "Daryl" Gilmour, joined Saga in December 1979 after Greg Chadd left the band in August 1979
(Chadd joined Saga in December 1978 after original member Peter Rochon left the
band to become a full-time music equipment company executive shortly after the band's first album was released).
