ÅBY ROCK 1 • Tossene, Bohuslän, Sweden • Between 4,000 and 2,500 years old The main symbols here are known as “Spirit Ships, which are a representation of the journey to the afterlife. The lines along the deck of the ship are people and larger of the two ships contains images of a double-headed axe and two spears. Ancient origins of the swastikas have pointed towards it representing the wheels of the Sun Chariot, in this carving the position of the tetraskelion certainly points to that. The petroglyphs of southern Scandinavia are mostly dated from the later part of the Bronze age circa 500-1500 BC SOURCE SOURCE
