🇩🇪 Drei jahrtausendealte Menhire der Stones of Stenness auf Orkney ragen trotzig in einen dramatisch bewölkten Himmel, während sich dahinter ein stilles Gewässer im milden Abendlicht spiegelt. Winzige Menschenfiguren an den Steinen erinnern daran, dass diese monumentalen „Hilfsmittel" unserer Vorfahren bis heute keine Bedienungsanleitung geliefert haben. 🇬🇧 Three millennia-old standing stones of the Stenness circle in Orkney rise defiantly against a dramatically clouded sky, with a calm loch mirroring the soft evening light behind them. The tiny human figures at their base remind us that these monumental „tools" of our ancestors have yet to come with an instruction manual.

The word 'teigr' appears in a place-name in ch. 9 of the Saga of the Earls of Orkney #Orkneyingasaga. Hávarðsteigar, somewhere near #Stenness in #Orkney, was where Earl Hávarðr 'the Harvest-blessed' and 'a good chieftain' was killed by his nephew Einarr at the instigation of his wife Ragnhildr. 🧵1/4
