Wall art "Wotan protect this house" Odin Wodan the All-Father
Bark discs - "wall art" with the Low German saying: "Wotan bewohr düt Huus" (in Standard German: "Wotan bewahre dieses Haus" / home)
Protective symbol, as wall decor for hanging above the house / apartment / entrance door etc.
Written in the approximately 800-year-old Heath Low German (Lüneburg Heath and Aller region)
It is the territory of the West Germanic tribe of the "Dulgubnii," who later merged with the Lombards who migrated from the Elbe region!
Since we see ourselves as descendants of the West Germanic tribes, we have consciously written in the original language (and also write "Wotan" as Germanic peoples do - not "Odin" as is common with the Vikings)!
West Low German is a West Germanic language, also related to Frisian Low German and the North Sea Germanic language - these originate from the Indo-Germanic parent language!
Heath Low German (West Germanic): "Wotan bewohr düt Huus" -
translated into the Standard German language: Wotan protect this house, or: Wotan shield this house.

Wotan or Wodan is translated as "wrath." Oðr, translated from Old Norse as "wrath," also "cultic ecstasy" (god of ecstasy) was the namesake for the North Germanic Odin and South Germanic Wotan.
