High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Snake-witch (Ormhäxan), Snake-charmer (Ormtjuserskan) or Smiss stone (Smisstenen) is a picture stone found at Smiss, När parish, Gotland, Sweden. Discovered in a cemetery, it measures 82 cm (32 in) in height and depicts a figure holding a snake in each hand.Above the figure there are three interlaced creatures (forming a triskelion pattern) that have been identified as a boar, an eagle, and a wolf. The stone has been dated to 400 600 A.D. Although many scholars call it the Snake-witch, what the stone depicts an accurate interpretation of the figures and whether it derives from Celtic art or Norse art remain debated.
