26 posts held, back to 30 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 7 pagesof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
557 reactions across 20 posts, in 7 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 37.3% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❤ | 208 | 37.3% | |
| ⚡ | 157 | 28.2% | |
| ❤🔥 | 128 | 23.0% | |
| 🤯 | 36 | 6.46% | |
| 🔥 | 11 | 1.97% | |
| 👍 | 10 | 1.80% | |
| 🙏 | 7 | 1.26% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 26 of the 26 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 713reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 26 most recent posts we hold, published 30 July 2026 to 12 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

“Tyr is the one-handed god, and the leavings of the wolf, and the ruler of the temple. Mars “director”.” ~Icelandic Rune Poem As Tacitus did in Germania, this stanza likens Týr to Mars. Like Tiwesdæg, Tuesday was Mars’s sacred day, called Dies Martis in Latin. Arches dedicated to “Mars Thincsus” were found along Hadrian’s wall; thincsus may derive from Proto-Germanic þingsaz, “of the þing”, making it a Romano-Germani…

“Thurs is the torment of women, and the dweller in the rocks, and the husband of Vardh-rúna. Saturn “ruler of the thing”.” ~Icelandic Rune Poem This stanza compares the jötnar, and by extension Ymir, to Saturn, similarly deposed by his son, the king of the Gods. ᚦ “Þurs er kvenna kvöl ok kletta búi ok varðrúnar verr. Saturnus þengill.”

A remarkably well preserved Celtic sword from the Must Farm village, Cambridgeshire, 1st Century BC-AD, with a bronze triskelion inlay. The blade had been bent back on itself, indicating the sword was deposited as an offering. ࿋

The use of weapons and tools as offerings goes back to the Mesolithic; Western Hunter-Gatherers ritually deposited axe heads into rivers and tree throws. Stone Age axes being uncovered and washing up after storms could easily have been seen as the Gods returning a familiar gift. 𐘾

Amber pendants from a Neolithic burial in Laddenhøj, Denmark, shaped like Neolithic hammer heads and flat axes; the cult of the thunderstone may reach back to the Stone Age, with these axes carrying an association with the Storm Gods, washing up on shore after storms. 𐘾

“Yr is a source of joy and honour to every prince and knight; it looks well on a horse and is a reliable equipment for a journey.” ~Anglo Saxon Rune Poem ᚣ Yr, like its Younger Futhark counterpart, means yew, and by extension, bow. The form of the rune itself somewhat resembles a bow with an arrow. This stanza seems to imply the Anglo Saxons used horse bows, perhaps adopted from the Huns. Painting by Peter Nicolai Ar…

The meaning of Peorð remains unknown. An etymological link has been proposed with the Ogham letter Ceirt ᚊ, meaning apple tree; perhaps this refer to cider by extension, or in Old English, æppelwīn. The shape of the rune does resemble the gnarled, twisting branches of an apple tree. ᛈ “Peorð byþ symble plega and hlehter wlancum on middum, ðar wigan sittaþ on beorsele bliþe ætsomne.” “Peorth is a source of recreation …

Interesting detail on this piece…on the back, along with some mineralized verdigris, you can see where some of the gold dripped through the beard during the fire gilding process. The way gilding was done back then was the gold was crushed into a powder and mixed with mercury, applied like a paint, then applied to fire; the mercury evaporated, and the gold particles melted together. 𐘾

“With regard to offerings, the most pleasing ones we can render to the gods are birds, and other simple figures, which a painter may draw in a day; and let the other gifts have the same character of simplicity.” ~Cicero, De Legibus This was a widely held belief; votive miniature figures of Gods, people, animals and weapons are often found at the sites of temples and shrines across Europe. Making art for the Gods was …

A runic amulet from Kvinneby, Sweden, directly connects Thor’s hammer to Neolithic axe-hammers; part of the inscription reads “May Thor protect him with that hammer which came from out of the sea”, referring to how Neolithic axes, or thunderstones, washed up on shores after storms. The full inscription reads; “Here I carve protection for you, Bófi, with/to you is certain. And may the lightning hold all evil away fro…

Showing the 12 most recent of 26 posts we hold for @sagnamadr. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Citation-graph rank — 5,666 of 1,350,102entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below — republished posts weigh more than named mentions — and recomputed periodically, over the whole graph. Published only as this ordinal position, never as a score: a position is a fact, and a score printed beside one channel’s name would read as a verdict this register does not make. The two counts beneath stay separate for the same reason mentions are never summed with forwards anywhere else on this page — a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture. The top 100 by this measure, or how it is computed.
Republished by
Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
Named by 4 registered channels — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 12 August 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
