          Thunor's duel with the Orm, serpent-dragon of Middle Earth.  The text reads:

 

M-L-N-R K-N-W-D T-R-D R-M = Old Norse Mjolnir knudh, traudh Orm

="Mjolnir has struck, the Serpent-dragon weakens."

 

          This inscription lies 18 ft. north of the main sun-god figure at the Peterborough, Ontario site.  Thunor's hammer, Mjolnir, is shown beside its name on the lower right (Fell 1982).
