DANGER!

The "lightning bolt" has for eons been used as a  symbol for death, This white limestone example, perched upon a pedestal is by no means average, note it is cut and slotted to fit. Most of these symbols are either cut or carved on a rock face or made up of cracks, in a rock face that form a lightning bolt    Early on the symbol     was used to convey death by the divine, as this was an early symbol for God. It was later replaced by the lightning bolt, so as God would not be associated with death by man.
