One of the UK's most 'decorated' or deliberately marked stones. The study by Andy Jones and myself identified 105 cup marks, and up to 47 linear features that radiate from or link them together. 

Read a [popular article](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2017/07/07/ancient-stone-monuments-may-have-used-mysterious-moonlit-ceremonies/) in the Telegraph or if your organisation subscribes, read the [full research](http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/1751696X.2017.1341241) in the journal Time and Mind.

This model was funded by [Cornwall Archaeological Society](https://cornisharchaeology.org.uk). The cup marks and grooves can be best seen with the "matcap" shader - selectable by clicking or tapping the Model Inspector tool from the 'stack' icon on the lower right of the viewer. Another good view is to select the AO option (from the 'stack' icon).

Hendraburnick Propped Stone

This helmet features decorative grooves on the skull and the visor has been extended into a beak.

As late as in 1866, the helmet was thought to have belonged to King Magnus Ladulås (dead in 1290) and was on display in the Riddarholmen Church together with a suit of armour consisting of unrelated parts.

However, King Magnus would never have come across the helmet which was made in Germany in the 1530s.

Helmet with Beaked Visor

This helmet is part of a suit armour with similar decorative grooves as on the helmet’s skull.

This type of armour is often referred to as Maximilian armour (after the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I). The bellows visor on the helmet is also characteristic of this type of armour.

It was thought, during the 19th century, that the helmet had belonged to King Johan I of Sweden (who died in 1222) but it was later revealed that the helmet had in fact been made in Germany around 1510.

This stone slab lies 3m to the NE of the kerb cairn on the Monzie estate. It measures 2.5m in length by 1.5m in breadth. The upper face has about 60 cups, each with up to 4 rings. The largest ring measures 400mm in diameter and the cups are up to 40mm deep. Two cups have radial grooves and one dumbell was also noted.

Visited in Febuary 2022. 

Check it out with matcap. It looks amazing.

The spatha is a type of straight, long sword. It is characterised by its double-edged blade. It is typically held with one hand and is primarily used for cutting. The edges of this specimen curve inwards slightly towards the rounded, relatively short tip. The central part of the blade has grooves. Faint remnants of the wooden scabbard are visible on one side of the blade. Small areas with textile impressions are visible on both sides.

This object was digitized through the ‘Kulturerbe digital’ program of the Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, Public Service and Sport.

Spatha

Flat stamp or seal in the form of a star or flower, with five projections or points (originally six), each decorated with a series of three parallel grooves. At the center is a quadruped animal, possibly a deer (Odocoileus virginianus).

A huge rock, with a very weathered surface.  Towards the top of this rock, there is a concentration of incised rock art.  Less than 20% of the rock art in Valcamonica is incised or engraved (graffiti-type rock art), the majority being produced by percussion, or pecking.  

Graffiti-type rock art is of two types, determined by its method of production. One type is produced by abrading the lines, know as the polissoir method; the other, represented here is by engraving, to produce filiform rock art.  Filiform because the resulting lines resemble thin wire, rather than the thicker grooves made by the polissoir method.

On this part of Rock 1, towards the right in the 3D model,  there is a group of incised axe heads.  To the left there is a further grouping of geometrical shapes, predominately rectangles, also triangles and house-like shapes - common themes in Western European filiform rock art. Many of these figures have internal decoration.

LOKA 05: JANA (Plane of Creation) is a V2 high-relief disc generated by the PAPP 6-stage pipeline (φ-RG → CF → Pythagorean triple → S³ → Hopf → stereographic) and then overlaid with Meru Prastara: the Pascal Triangle mapped to a disc as a Sierpiński fractal. 

Each Pascal row becomes a terrace level: solid cells form crest ridges, while void cells carve deep negative canyons (mountain-vs-trench logic). 

V2 turns the flat combinatorial diagram into geology: 12-step quantized terracing with shadow grooves, amplified Meru scale (~3.5×), and a dark “abyss” palette that reads depth at sculpture scale.

Mesh: 57,170 verts / 114,336 faces, closed watertight manifold (χ=2). 

Z range [−0.275, 1.928], surface area 328.98.

"Incense burner with a decorated lid featuring a skeleton figure with hands on its waist, with ribs depicted in detail (achieved through grooves and molded elements). It likely references the god Mictlantecuhtli, known in other Mesoamerican cultures as the “Lord of Mictlán” or “Lord of the Land of the Dead.” Its Maya counterpart is Ah Puch, also known as Ah Cimih, Kisin (“The Stinking One”), or Yum-Kimil. In Maya mythology, he is the god and ruler of Mitnal, the underworld."
