I am experimenting with the image generator in ChatGPT to help create educational visualizations of bronze age steppe cultures.
The first image is of a Fatyanovo burial and the second image is of a Yamnaya man in front of a wagon. I uploaded into the prompts some of my artistic reconstructions in order to help guide the output. I then made minor edits to both images to increase accuracy.
The axe in the Yamnaya image was inspired by the axe artifact in this image linked below:

The Irish annals depict Gaels voluntarily going apostate and adopting Norse culture and religious practices.
There was a fairly distinct Thor cult presence in Ireland, as I have indicated in this post.

Find it hard to keep up with all the different archaeological cultures, matching them to regions and periods etc?
My friend has created a Holocene periodic table for all of West Eurasia. He is going to keep updating it so this link will always be the latest version.

Sweden's tallest runestone stands at 4.6 m (15'). The runes reveal it was raised by Herulfr in memory of his sons Var and Thorgut. I visited it ten years ago.

It is profane to offer meat to the Gods that has been slaughtered and blessed under the Kosher and Halal laws, as these are ritual slaughtering methods which include prayers to dedicate the animal to a foreign god.
If you are going to offer meat, find a farm that does it without such methods — or raise it and slaughter it yourself.

O, great Goddess,
glorious beauty!
Radiant rider,
Rays of the dawn
Easter, we embrace
And endow with gifts
Hands high,
Hearts gladdened.
