Thor’s hammer was not a fertility symbol. That belonged to Fre. His symbol was a falus. Shoosh.

Ahhh, it was an Iron Age Weapons collector or Archeologist?

Best regards,

What's a Stone Age axe doing in an Iron Age tomb?

It was obviously the tomb of an Iron Age antique collector.;-)

So why was there an old axe from the Stone Age in the grave?”, the archaeologists asks.”

Thor and Appolo, definitely active of late.

We seem to get reminders from various sources.

LOL.

The pearls of glass also seem to have a connection.

Not as mysterious as finding iron age artifacts in stone age graves, doncha think?

Thanks decimon. I could have sworn there was a topic about this perhaps a year ago, maybe more, but didn't find one.

My apologies to that mistaken ping to the GGG list, that NRA topic. That was meant for the Usual Suspects, and I figured out my mistake when I got the usual soft error (no result page, even though -- I believe -- the pings are getting through).

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

The thunderstone of Catherine the Great, moved to become the pedestal of the equestrian statue of Peter the Great she commissioned in St. Petersburg. Thought to be the biggest thunderstone ever moved by man.

I don't know. I've moved some pretty big thunderstones.

"If one finds something once, it's accidental. If it is found twice, it's puzzling. If found thrice, there is a pattern", the archaeologists Olle Hemdorff and Eva Thäte say.

Or, in Obama's case, if something isn't found multiple times, there's a pattern.

Because (and also maybe why he died) he had to hock his iron axe at the local pawn shop, when the economy went south under King Obamskar I?

NEVER confuse a thunderstone with an ironstone thunderjug.

Or, for that matter, don’t confuse either one with a thundermug...always keep your powder dry.

SC...I wondered about the NRA ping but was glad to get it. Do you have a list going on 2nd amendment issues? If so please add me to it (unless it’s super heavy volume). Thanks

Papa was a rolling stone age man
Where ever he laid his ax was his home
and when he died, we put it in his dome
