The Old Norse text continues on the right of the Hjulatorp
inscription, designating on the stone in Tifnag letters
T-A K-GH-L = Tá kughla = "The path of the [sun's] globe." A relic of
the still older Neolithic hieroglyphic script persists in the ideogram of a
pair of shoe-prints, representing the word tá ("path"). Therefore, the Hjulatorp inscription as a
whole has reference to the path of the sun across the sky, and was probably
the site of a calendar-regulation observatory (Fell 1982). |
