According to Mindy MacLeod and Bernard Mees, the amulets appear in Viking Age graves, and were presumably placed there because " they were thought to have protective powers ".

" According to Mindy MacLeod and Bernard Mees, the inscription " seems to begin as a benevolent formulation before abruptly switching to the infliction of distress and misery, presumably upon the recipient of the charm rather than the baleful valkyrie ", and they posit the final line appears " to constitute a rather spiteful kind of charm aimed at securing the love of a woman ".

It is not clear if Picatinny took the concept from this Canadian weapon and asked Norman MacLeod to develop it ; or if he came up with the idea independently and presented it to them.

Contributing artists and writers worked on the strip over the years, including Stephen Slesinger who scripted and approved all of the stories until his death in 1953 ; Jim Gary, Edmund Good, John Wade (" Johnnie ") Hampton, Robert MacLeod and Bill Lignanti ( of The Palm Restaurant fame ).

George Fielden MacLeod, Baron MacLeod of Fuinary, Bt MC ( 17 June 1895 – 27 June 1991 ) was a Scottish soldier and clergyman ; he was one of the best known, most influential and unconventional Church of Scotland ministers of the 20th century.

His father ( Sir John MacLeod ) was a successful businessman before entering politics as a Unionist MP ; his mother Edith was from a wealthy Lancastrian family ( owning cotton mills ).

The idea has appeared elsewhere ; in one of his novels, Ken MacLeod has characters explicitly mention ( and worry about encountering ) the " Langford Visual Hack ".

There are four dialects of Blackfoot, three of which are spoken in Alberta, Canada and one of which is spoken in the United States: Siksiká ( Blackfoot ), to the southeast of Calgary, AB ; Kainai ( Blood ), spoken in Alberta between Cardston and Lethbridge ; Aapátohsipikani ( Northern Piegan ), to the west of Fort MacLeod ; and Aamsskáápipikani ( Southern Piegan ), in northwestern Montana.

Leod ( Scottish Gaelic: Leòd ; Old Norse: Ljótr ) ( c. 1200 – 1280 ) is considered the eponymous ancestor and founder of Clan MacLeod and Clan MacLeod of Lewis.

MacLeod and Mees state that the opening lines of the charm correspond to the Poetic Edda poem Sigrdrífumál, where the valkyrie Sigrdrífa provides runic advice, and that the meaning of the term skag is unclear, but a cognate exists in Helgakviða Hundingsbana I where Sinfjötli accuses Guðmundr of having once been a " skass-valkyrie ".

MacLeod and Mees believe the word means something like " supernatural sending ", and that this points to a connection to the Ragnhild Tregagás charm, where a valkyrie is also " sent forth ".

MacLeod and Mees theorize that " the role of the corpse-choosing valkyries became increasingly confused in later Norse mythology with that of the Norns, the supernatural females responsible for determining human destiny [...].

Thus it is assumed that the property is a universal which is distinct from the particular individual who has the property ( MacLeod & Rubenstein, 2006, § 1b ).

If the same concept is correctly and non-arbitrarily applied to two individuals, there must be some resemblance or shared property between the two individuals that justifies their falling under the same concept and that is just the metaphysical problem that universals were brought in to address, the starting-point of the whole problem ( MacLeod & Rubenstein, 2006, § 3d ).
