Sacred Stone Grandfather
Sacred Stone Grandfather submitted by AlexAssa : Shrine Stone Grandfather of Yamal region (Russia) Megalithica.ru (Vote or comment on this photo)
Standing Stone (Menhir) in Russia This Shrine Stone is named Grandfather

Megalithica.ru

This stone is situated in a very remote area in the Priuralsky district of Yamal in Northwest Siberia, it is home to the Nenets people. One of their traditional sledges can be seen behind the snowmobile in the image.

"Yamal in the language of the indigenous Nenets means the end of the world; it is a remote, wind-blasted place of permafrost, serpentine rivers and dwarf shrubs, and has been home to the reindeer-herding Nenets people for over a thousand years."
