(CLICK to Enlarge) The Peterborough, Ontario rock
carvings depict what the Nordic visitors saw in America. They read in Old Norse as follows:
W-A-L (hval = whale)
M-TH-R (Madhr = man: an Algonquin)
W-L U-L-W (val ulf = foreign wolf) The whale lies 18 ft SW of the main sun-god figure; the man is just to the left of the sun god, and the wolf 12 ft to the SW of the sun god. Retrograde writing direction is used. The wolf is a rebus, thus his legs are shown separated from his body. (Fell 1982). |
