|origin={{tip|Scand}}
|description=A giant in the ''Edda''; lit., “the oarsman”; the father of Loki, whose mother was the giantess Laufey (leafy isle); a genealogy which makes W. S. W. Anson remark in ''Asgard and the Gods ''that probably the oarsman or Farbauti “was the giant who saved himself from the flood in a boat, and the latter (Laufey) the island to which he rowed”—which is an additional variation of the Deluge {{etg-source|TG}}.
