Vendel age tattoo

A fresh version of a main- icon in nordic tattooing, based on a 7th century depiction of Odin on a Vendel helmet plate, found in Uppland.
Why the swastika on the shield? in the original meaning there´s no better protection symbol and Wotan and the horse appear a lot together with the sunwheel during that period.

Some basic and necessary information ( we can not do enough to spread knowledge, only knowledge and education avoid intolerance and violence) : http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika
