Multiple stone labyrinths at fishing villages on Fårö — the windswept island north of Gotland that Ingmar Bergman made his home, filming Persona, Shame, and Through a Glass Darkly in its stark landscapes. Fårö's fishing communities (fiskläge) maintained labyrinths as part of maritime ritual — walked before setting out to sea to ensure safe passage. The island's raukar (sea stacks), formed from 400-million-year-old Silurian limestone, create a landscape of primordial power. At Giza bearing 347°, 3,241 km from the Great Pyramid.
