Where Are Our Statues?

[Old Winter]

We really have nothing do we ?

If i look at Hinduism and Buddhism i see all these wonderful statues, also the statues from ancient Greece.

I want something i can place in my house, statues of the gods, and i do not mean stereotypical statues with horns etc, but real religious ones.

Just look at the statues in India, from small to big, there are many who say we Germanics are the ''uber race'', if that is so then how come we have absolutely zero ? no statues, no temples, nothing, just look at what they have in India:

I place the urls because i do not want to steal bandwidth, to many images

They even throw huge statues in the sea during a special festival (Ganesh Chaturthi) that wash up on the beach the next day:

Not even the statues during our Carnaval parades look half this good.

Let alone their beautiful temples...


So, what will we do ?

Nooooooooo!

We dont have any temples?

The last heathen "hov" builders were the first stavkirkebuilders.




Not sure what kind of statues you mean but you can find small replicas of runestones and old god figures (figures who are based on a archelogical find). Im not sure about Netherlands, but we found figures like that here in the north.





About large statues and monuments, we have tons. Here is one from outside of Stavanger:

Norwegian phallos, fertility symbol:


Fridtjof den frøkne


Germany



We have many statues, symbols, temples (you can find them in nature too), you just have to look.

I know i am just pushing people to place all we have here and make more

I'm not sure whether the Green-Man is more Celtic or more Germanic, but Mr. Green Man certainly has a place in heathen nature worship

Granted, he's probably not a god, and he's celtic.

But hey, our ancestors made those things mainly out of wood, and wood rots!

[Old Winter]

We do have many statues that are very lifelike made centuries ago in Europe.

Problem is is that most of them are about the christian religion, they are well made and in the European appearance (all the statues of people in the bible are made to look Germanic).

If Europe had not become christian then we would have had the same type of statues but then for the Germanic gods, like they had in ancient Greece and our enemy Rome

There is Stonehenge and many other henges in England/Scotland.

There are Menhire en mas in Brittany.

there are 1000 or so cavepaintings in south east France (16 - 32.000 years old)

There are several Dozen little figurines from Schwaebische Alb (35.000 years old)

There are sunobservatories in Germany (Goseck 7.500 years old)

There are Labyrints (menmade) in Germany they are prehistoric.

There are plenty of 'Huenengraeber', giant stone graves in Germany (also stonecircles etc)

There is the sunwagon of tundholm (3,000 years old ((older than the eqyptians)

there are 3 sided Pyramids in the discovery on the Balkan.

Kurgan graves, Hallstatt graves (all so called mount graves)

Plenty of stuff to choose from. ZOG doesn't want to publish them, only the negative news like cannibalism etc

And after all Germany has 'Gartenzwerge' with their original celtic clothing. You can put them in the garden. They are somewhat cliche but nice.

What is "Celtic" about their origin and their clothes?

Just look at the statues in India, from small to big, there are many who say we Germanics are the ''uber race'', if that is so then how come we have absolutely zero ? no statues, no temples, nothing, just look at what they have in India:

It is not mandatory to have temples, statues or even idols of any sort and the gaudiness of these things is also controversial in India. Low crop yield ratios that lasted well into historic times meant that Germanics were more focused on furthering their survival rather than investing resources into purely aesthetic projects that were readily replaceable by nature.

We do have many statues that are very lifelike made centuries ago in Europe.

Problem is is that most of them are about the christian religion, they are well made and in the European appearance (all the statues of people in the bible are made to look Germanic).

There is also a great deal of Classicist work by talented Germanic sculptors, but they are really another way of affirming Christian Europeanism rather than genuine references to the Hellenic or Roman folkways.

Additionally, some elements of Germanic low mythology survived as part of popular folklore and they are sometimes encountered in objects such as the Heinzelmännchenbrunnen in Cologne.











"Heinzelmännchen" are a local type of Kobold, a house spirit akin to the nisse/tomte and the hobgoblin.

Fortunately the Germanic races have remained intact, all you need to do is go for a walk and you will see living statues of the creators of the germanic empire, just with less beards and shorter hair.

Testaments to their triumphs are evident whenever you see castle ruins or the remains of a bunker, simply walking through the forest is a token to their memory.
