In 1866 while levelling a terp (artificial mound) in Frisia, The Netherlands, a labourer found a pot of gold. This hoard has been associated with Frisian Kings. The many pendants contain coins from the Byzantine Empire including some of the sixth-centory emperor Justinian from Ravenna. The coins were taken out of circulation and made into jewelery. This beautiful treasure was buried in the mound around 640 AD near Wiewerd. Look at the detailed handcraft.

Here’s a gentle reminder to live life with a gentle balance. Don’t push yourself so hard that you completely spiral out of control. Don’t keep going until you’re only running on fumes. Take care of yourself, respect your limits, and recharge when you need to.

Reminder that it’s good to get into the habit of not having your phone on you if you’re camping or hiking or meeting up with likeminded friends. The “New World Order” doesn’t need to implant microchips into people’s skulls when everyone willingly carries around a device that displays their location and records/monitors all you say.

Robert Wilhelm Ekman (1808 – 1873) 🇫🇮 — Väinämöinen playing the Kantele (1866)

Ekman began working on the painting in 1857, but due to financial difficulties et cetera, he didn't finish it until 1866. Its initial reception was poor — it was too Finnish for the Swedes, and Ekman himself too Swedish for the Finns — but the painting is now considered to be his magnum opus. He also made a sketch of the composition.

Väinämöinen is surrounded by a host of Gods and entities. Pellervoinen, the God of vegetation, is seen planting a sapling on the left. Behind him are the God & Goddess of the forest, Tapio & Mielikki. Behind them, accompanied by a bear, is a hiisi, a tricksterlike entity. On the right are Ahti & Vellamo, the God & Goddess of the sea. The girls in the front, accompanied by a swan, are known as Sotkotars (singular: Sotkotar, i.e. 'Scaupess'). Sitting on the rainbow are the airmaids Päivätär & Kuutar, along with Tähdetär ('Starress'), Otavatar (from Otava, the Big Dipper), and a fifth one.

The Scythians are presented to us as primitive nomadic barbarians.. Just like how all of the pre-Abrahamic European and Nordic cultures are presented to us. However, there are different forms of evidence that contradicts this picture of ancient Europeans. Like the Scythian gold jewelry for example! I understand that some modern Middle Eastern people claim to have descended from the Scythians, but here in this post I am focused on the Caucasian/European Scythians. I don’t have the name of the source now, because I came across this information five years ago, but I remember someone posting an article about a pair of Scythian gold earrings, and how these particular earrings were so extraordinary, so perfectly crafted, it seems as those it was made by the gods, and not humans. There were many extremely tiny intricate details on those earrings, so tiny in fact, that you had to observe them through a special device. There were several professional craftsmen/jewelers who took on the challenge to try to reproduce/re-create the very same earrings, but they were unsuccessful. This lets us know that the ancient technique and technology that our ancestors possessed is now lost. It shows us that obviously, some primitive barbaric nomads would not be producing such masterpieces of craftsmanship. As far as Scythians were nomads goes, I believe not all Scythian were nomads. I believe there’s a lot of hidden history there waiting for us to uncover it, and uncover it we shall. All that is hidden will be exposed eventually
