This icon is a picture of the oldest known bear statue.

It is believed to be from about 4500bce and shows a momma bear with her little baby bear.
It is thought to be a statue of the earthmother/goddess/whatever-you-call-her personified in bear form.

I think it's cute :)

I got it from a book [livejournal.com profile] blakeshell lent to me as he thought, and quite rightly so, that it would make a great icon for me...

the word "viking" simply refers to sailing out of a river. A little known fact is that the vikings actually sailed around the world singing poetry and dilivering flowers around europe. This pushes out alot of the inferior native men from the geen pool, thus creating the illusion of a conquest. The monks were pissed off because so many christian women were lured to pegan husbands by their uncanny ability to muff dive, a skill still widely held by scandinavians today.

Yes, I have been called on appaling scholarship recently. But I am a historian and I did not make that part up.
Except the fact about anyone with at least a quarter of Danish blood in them being fantastic at eating pussy.

That last part was made up, right? ;)

I don't doubt that ;)

...But does quarter Danish count as Scandinavian? Perhaps you're right...

In this case we'll let it count :)
