At the end of the Neolithic period
Scandinavia was occupied by farming people, and plowing became possible with
the availability of draft animals.
The upper Petroglyph, in Bronze Age style, is from
Denmark. However, at Woden-lithi's
site in Peterborough, Ontario, ca. 40 ft. north of the main sun-god figure,
there are two compositions, one of which is shown below the Danish
example. This Canadian Petroglyph
seems to indicate a plowman, though no draft animal was known in Canada. Woden-lithi's purpose seems to have been
to inform and instruct, by representing a Scandinavian scene and a suggestion
that a search be made in America for suitable draft animals (Fell 1982). |
