A link, at least a dis-ambiguation link, to what variety of names are used in different cultures, for grues, or grue, is? appropriate for this page, but there appears to be nothing, deliberately.
Censorship, does not SUIT Wikipedia.
Grues or similar efforts by hunters, shamans, etc, are although a grisly topic, both a part of our HISTORY,
As well as a being a part of our attempts at social-regulation and signalling,
when differnt kinds or types of grues were used for both advocacy and respect for types of animals or plants used in shrines and places of worship of kinds desired (and at other times attempted metaphysical-purposes, spirit-binding, etc),
As well as the contrary by comparison, of grues of warning, or warding, (animals only)
warning, for recognition of a speices that is a threat to humans and/or or livestock, such as a snake's head on a stick, for a simple example,
and warding, for the attempted keping-out of an area, of an animal by the use of it's carcass or just a skull or collection of skulls that is assumed to be understandable 'enough' , to at least reduce an animal's visitation to the desired area ... lion skulls around a large goat enclosure, Wolf skulls around a pig-enclosure,.. whichever.
As i understand it, the term is used distinct from others, when an assemblage, or often in the metaphysical side of things, arrangement of bones and at least one skull, is stiched, horizontally-arranged, or set-into a wall-facia set-into cavities in walls for semi-permanent or permanent fixtures,
AND, the target animal, or in the case of human-grues, effect on the animal or human , is of a kind of attempted counter-natural-recognition instictive uncertainty or hesitancy effect ...
... as in, when one can recognise what a normal skeleton or corpse looks like, one then encounters at the entry to a cave, something that looks totally INhuman, but has a human head on the top of it, cut into and hung-from cavities and tied parts of the cave-entry. The assemblage of human and inhuman bones IN-that asselblage, is a grue-OF animal/human remains ;
the term is both a noun, adjective, and noun-verb, limited by grues normally-being static, unless ANIMATED, like with wind-chime like apparatus, so a,
grue of an artwork ... could be in modern times, a piece of art that is MORE than a working-OF art (verb, workING), when it then is also a grue adjective-verb - ( grammatically a adjective-noun, but can be used as a noun-verb, for an ONGOING-work or changing work)
Also, a reference to the ORIGIN of the word GRUE-some,
should not be avoided. No amount of sensitivity presumption, is going to erase that history of the word. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.21.59.187 (talk) 21:44, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
