Lug, the Ancient Irish god of light,
is shown in Norse runes of the period AD 750-1050. The name is in the possessive case: Lug's (site or his image).
This Petroglyph occurs at Castle Gardens near Moneta,
Wyoming. The drawing is reproduced
from a photograph taken by Ted C. Sowers of the Wyoming Archeological Survey
(1941). Although this is the work of
a paleo-artist of relatively modern times, the theme relates back to the Bronze
Age, as does the formalistic style, like that of the earliest Bronze
Age (Fell 1982). |
