Not really Snake news, But I thought this was Cool...

"Archaeologists in southwest Finland have discovered a wooden carving resembling a snake, according to a new paper published in the journal Antiquity. The 4,400-year-old artifact was discovered in a wetland, and is believed to be an ancient shaman’s staff."

How do they know it was "...made to look like it’s slithering away." ? Maybe it was slithering "towards"? Either way, pretty cool!

That is a cool snake staff!
