Som frågade på quora :
The film opens with Red Skull breaking into a church and stealing a hidden Tesseract. But why was it there in the first place? Is there a possibility it was a gift to the vikings by Odin himself?
Surely such a powerful object wouldn't be hidden behind a brick wall in Norway. Why wasn't it kept in Asgard along with all the other powerful items that Odin owns?
The opening sequence of Captain America: The First Avenger, combined with the historical information at the start of Thor provides the answer. ~1000 years ago, Asgardians fought the Frost Giants on Earth as part of a cross-realm war. During this war, the Tesseract was lost on the Earth. (Source : Scifi)
Så det är klart att Odin inte gav det avsiktligt till någon men det var förlorat på jorden. Människans fann den här och gömde den i Norge för att rädda den från dåliga människor.
