Obsessive stonework in the Saudi Arabian desert, northeast of Medina, resembling the archaic Axis Mundi and the polar aligned planets of the Saturnian Polar Configuration ("the gods of the North").
Recently discovered by aerial & satellite photography; original provenance unknown. Numbering in the thousands, perhaps even tens of thousands, they are largely clustered on either sides of Lichtenberg figures etched into the desert floor. Like correlating examples elsewhere around the world (such as those recently discovered in the Negev desert), such figures have previously been designated as "fertility symbols" by conventional mythologists. |

"... To the Greeks it was a simple circular river that ringed the land mass. All streams flowed from it and it had neither outlets nor sources. It was also a god or a Titan, perhaps the most ancient of all Titans, since Sleep in Book XIV of the Iliad calls it the source from whom the gods are sprung.
In Hesiod’s Theogony , it is the father of all the world’s rivers - three thousand in number - the leading of which are the Alpheus and the Nile.
A world-circling serpent is also found in Norse cosmology; it is called the Miogarosormr - literally, the middle-yard’sworm, middle-yard standing for the earth. In the Younger Edda, Snorri Sturluson recorded that Loki fathered a wolf and a serpent. ...
The serpent, Jormungard, ‘was thrown into the sea surrounding the land and there it has grown so large that now it too surrounds the earth and bites its own tail.’ ..."
