THE RECREATION OF THE TEMPLE OF THOR AT THORSNESS IN ICELAND BY THOROLF MOSTRARSKEGG
from the Eyrbyggja Saga

"Then Thorolf cast overboard the high-seat pillars which had stood in the temple. On one of them was carved the figure of Thor. He declared that he would settle in that place in Iceland where Thor caused the pillars to come ashore."
