The holy stone
I have been reading, listening to podcast and youtube videos about the bronze age this autumn, and that is what inspired this drawing.
Sadly the vertical hatching with thin lines creates a lot of moiré when shown in low resolution on the screen. I have tried to blur it but that took away more than it added, so here it is. If you look at it in a smaller version the light and shadow is easier to see.
The strange symbols on the stone are what the archaeologist call upsidedown man and dagger. They are found on Sardinia.
Noone really knows how they were used, why they were made and what the meaning of the symbols signify, but that does of course not hold back the archeologists. There is an abundance of hypotheses.
In reality I think that humans then and now is pretty similar :) They probably had a lot of hypotheses about what went on in the stone age.
