The main sun-god figure, at the
central sighting point of King Woden-lithi's observatory. The elongated
figure of the god lies along the hoki
axis (direction of sunrise at Hogmanay), and the inscription may be read as: S-O-L-N (Old Norse solen, the sun) and W-L-D GH-M-N L,
Y-U-L-I-N (Old Norse hvild gaman oll,
Julinn, holiday for rest and
games for all, the Yule festival). Norse ogam on the disk of the sun spells
S-L-N B-L, Solen-bal, "Blazing sun." (Fell
1982) |
