Birds are associated with sky. Fire/sky is generally considered one concept in the runic scheme. Perhaps birds are associate with sky because of the ancient Rhinliddic bird cult. Khordavu assigned "the bird" as a part of Yelm, (which I'm sure you remember from your careful reading of GROY!)

Pent? Flat and treeless? Sure, just like Mongolia.... (which has rolling hills, rovers, marshes, trees along protected gullys, etc.)

Jeff uses "Cattle Lords and Clansmen", which is about ancient Ireland. You can probably find it on Amazon.com - a very scary site, as it is WAY too easy to buy cool books...
(I've banned myself from the site until I finish paying off "Daily Life in Ancient India", "The Worship of Shiva in Medieval India", and "Cartoon History of the Universe", Vol's I & II)
> if anyone had detailed maps, history, etc.of DP.
PLUG - PLUG - PLUG There's a great map of old DP, along with lots of detail on Quiviniland, in Enclosure, which is available from Neil Robinson, (neilr_at_wolfenet.com). Lots of good stuff on Shargash & Peloria, too. It's a very reasonable US$15, I believe.
PLUG - PLUG - PLUG Shamelessly,
