Thunor, god of thunder, possessed some powerful weapons, one of which was his hammer, Mjolnir, always represented with a very short handle. This inscription, ca. 10 feet SW of the main sun-god figure at Peterborough, Ontario is one of several similar ones at this site.

The inscription reads: M-L-N-R D-W-R-K H-M-A-R M-K TH-N-R = "Mjolnir: a dwarf made Thunor strong by [this] hammer." The hieroglyph hammer appears below the word H-M-A-R (Fell 1982).
