26 January 2014 ~ Remembering Ancient Pathways

Listening to:  Led Zeppelin ~ That's The Way (Paris Theatre, London, 4/1/1971)


Here are a few other statues from the Domain Park walk.

There are stories that have been wafting around in time, of three witches that were hanged in the 1800′s from trees in swamp land which has now become the beautiful and iconic Auckland Domain.

Others say it just commemorate Auckland's centenary.

The middle muse symbolizes the city finding it strength. while that on the left is holding the bay leaf signifying wisdom; the one on he right holds a cornucopia representing the bounty of youth.

The Valkyrie Statuary has in the center a large carved square stone. On the side are carvings of horses. On top of the stone is a domed area with a statue of a figure on horseback.

On the way back to the apartment from the Domain, I saw this placard on the bridge.

It's entitled Remember Ancient Pathways and talks about stone and steel markers in the bully below.

So I took a look through the plexiglass, but didn't see anything like what was described.

Until I zoomed in to the apex of the strip of land.
