Is this an ancient sacrificial stone?



Kimmo Huosionmaa

The picture above advances a strangely shaped stone in southern Finland near capital city Helsinki. Its strange shape makes me think is that an old sacrificial stone from the pagan age of Finland. That will not so far away from truth than people normally think. Finnish landscape is moraine, and there is full of quite small stones. That stone what is in this picture is so-called black granite, what is very strong mineral. And stones doesn't face much erosion in this kind of places. An erosion is a very common thing, what destroys relics, but if the stone will crush by trees or ice, that erosive material must get its way inside that stone.


And if there are no scars in stone, the ice can't break it. That's why this stone might be very old sacrificial stone because it looks like handmade an object. Of course, it might be a stone from the old building site, what workers have throw to the forest, but that will not explain that kind of shape of that strange stone. Here on the southern coast of Finland is a very old tradition for settlements, because Estonian coast is so close, that in ancient times tradesmen sailed across Baltic Sea, to change their stuff from central Europe to squirrel fur and another kind of pelts. And of course, when Russian empire rises, the sea route to Tallinn was grown more important, because relations between Sweden and Russia were not very good during 15th. to 18th. century.


In those times Finland was a part of the kingdom of Sweden. And that time has much influence of nowadays Finland. When we are talking about the pagan time of Finland, we must remember that old tradition does not disappear in one night, and I'm quite sure that old pagan cults were in the mind of people long after crusades of Swedish in the 14th century. Those crusades officially ended paganism in Finland, and punishment of those rituals was execution, that kind of traditions are strong in people mind.


And maybe somebody still believes in those old gods. I know that this sounds quite crazy, but there are rumors that somebody has been sacrificed to some ancient gods even in nowadays. That might be some kind of joke, but there are stories, that in somewhere in Lapland have people found ritual executed animals. But those stories might be only jokes or rumors. But it is bad to say what is persons right attitude of religion.


Those sacrifices might also be some kind of Wicca or something else new-pagan hobbyist work. That kind of rumors doesn't mention when those ritual sacrifices have been done, but they are interesting to hear. somebody says that they happened in to begin in the 20th century and wildest rumors say that they were from the 21st century. But who wants to believe those things is that person's own business. But they could give a strong subject to some Hollywood's movie manuscript, where the hero finds old cults from modern society.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

"Researchers discovered a significant magnesium anomaly in a meteorite’s dust particle, challenging current astrophysical models and suggesting new insights into hydrogen-burning supernovas. (Artist’s concept.)Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Rare Dust Particle From Ancient Extraterrestrial Meteorite Challenges Astrophysical Models) If the star is too heavy when its fusion reaction starts, it can detonate just at that moment, when its fusion starts. If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to  form  the blue giant or too  small  it can collapse  straight  into a black hole . If  the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts.    The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists  model  of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the...

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al. Ack.: CASU, CALET" (ScitechDaily, Astronomers Baffled by Ancient Galaxy That Mirrors Modern Milky Way) Researchers found the youngest Milky Way-type galaxy. The distance to the galaxy is enormous. And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista...

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) The transcendenc...
