Porenut

A statue holding its own fifth face up by the chin is the single most peculiar image in the Slavic record, and what it meant is not known. Saxo counted the faces and moved on. This is what the tradition's attestation actually looks like, and it is worth having in the corpus in that condition rather than dressed up.
