GENIUS LOCI OF STAR CARR Guardian spirits of Star Carr, the Mesolithic site in Yorkshire. Numerous objects have been unearthed here made from red deer, elk antler and bones from auroch and birds; as well as worked amber, haematite and iron pyrites. Some of the deer skullcaps are believed to have been worn as ceremonial headdresses. Genius loci are protective spirits of a place. ••• #xphaiea #artdoll #artdolls #primitivedoll #poppet #poppets #myth #mythology #starcarr #yorkshire #mesolithicculture #mesolithic #folkart #folkdolls #textileart #textileartdoll #handmade #folklore #britishfolklore # #goddess #pagansofinstagram #witchesofinstagram #witchcraft #archaeology #goblincore #fairies #fae https://www.instagram.com/p/CoxB_MFN_ce/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
