An ogam-inscribed flying horse of
Woden, with a slightly garbled version of Old Norse words Garflak Gungnir = "The spear
Gungnir." Like many other
inscriptions found along the valley of the Milk River in Alberta, Canada,
this work was carried out in recent centuries. It shows an astonishing retention of ancient tradition among
peoples who now speak an Amerindian tongue and who had probably long since
for-gotten the meaning or pronunciation of the words incorporated
into the rebus (Fell 1982). |
