The Peorth-Rune turned thus creates the 'Dice-Cup', the cup used in the Taefl-Board. (The Taefl Pieces are symbolised by the Stan-Rune). This is also the Swan-Ship of At-al-land, which sails upon the Waters of Dissolution at the end of a world-age. Sheaf-Ing also sailed in the Swan-Ship as the 'Swan-Knight'. The ship is also a symbol often used to denote a journey from one world to another. Playing the Taefl would be a kind of ritual of the 'repetition of an archetype' which brings that archetype into the physical world. "...the repetition of an archetypal action is performed in illo tempore by Ancestors or by Gods...By its repetition the act coincides with its archetype, and time is abolished.' Mercia Eliade.
