Carving in Russia
Tiunovskoe sanctuary
The object consists of two stone (in this area, nearby is another fairly large Boulder):
the first flat stone drowned in land and without visible images, while the second (about a metre to the West from the first) is larger and taller, named people cross.
This is an amazing stone. At the base it is something like a irregularly-shaped square and upwards gradually rounded. On smooth, bud-the surface cut various shapes, characters and objects. The images there are stairs leading up, and stairs, going under the ground-in shamanic cultures all over the world this means Trinity of lower world, and top, and a staircase as the path entrance.
The Boulder has a solar circle at the base and such is closer to his peak. Various geometric shapes: squares and triangles. Letters: Cyrillic and something Rune. You may want to consider the world tree, and, of course, a lot of crosses. For this reason, stone and call Crusades. The Orthodox tried to: literally baptized. Tried to tame it this way primitive power. And they partly succeeded (none of the natives could not understand the meaning of "Pagan" images on stone), but succeeded only temporarily: archaeologist Nikitinsky revived Tiunovskoe mythology.
Cross stone focuses on the West-East line (sunrises in the days of the equinoxes). The place itself-Tiunovskoe sanctuary, is located on the Hill, along the edges of the stones. Hill directed from South-West to North-East, it turns out vector stones sent there, where the sun rises in the days of the summer solstice. The Tiunovskoe stone cover all key points of the cycle Solstice. Understand-enough.
