Yeah so apparently this is not a cute flower symbol like my dumb ass thought, it's a defective utility pole tag.

You can see it at the Keller Public Library in Keller TX.

BURFORD: the Cotswold village has one of my favourite churches. It has a surprisingly sumptuous interior, with Gothic fan-vaulting, the wonderful tomb to young Lucius Cary (complete with marble skeleton underneath), amongst other remarkable tombs. It was a very wealthy parish due to the Medieval wool trade. Take a particular note of the depiction of the Walls Chocolate Viennetta folds of the robes of the reclining figures and the weight of the bodies on the carved pillows. #architecture #gothic#burford #churcharchitecture #gothicarchitecture #fanvaulting #tomb #medievalarchitecture #cotswolds (at Burford Parish Church) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRdedKYF4VV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sven Hedin, a Swedish explorer, documented Zoroastrian Towers of Silence (dakhmas) near Tehran, Iran, around 1898. These circular, raised structures were used for excarnation, where bodies were exposed to vultures and the elements to avoid contaminating the earth.
