In mythology, Thor also had a belt of strength, Megingjörð, which has on rare occasion turned up in the Marvel universe.

Yup, but then mythological Thor also didn’t have a few of the powers Marvel!Thor does. Flight for example - he couldn’t fly on his own, or via Mjollnir fiat, but had a flying chariot pulled by a pair of ornery goats instead. Which he gets to eat every day, then resurrect with his hammer (I’m not making any of this up). But then again, Freyja for her part had a chariot pulled by two cats, which in my mind is proof of High Magic at play right there :).
In some versions Thor has a cape that lets him fly instead. And in at least one version I’ve been told of (dunno if it’s apocryphal or not) he pulls himself by his own bootstraps, flinging his hammer away so hard he gets to fly just by clinging to it :p.
