The Plighting Stone is a very unique and rare item on display here at the Teeterville Museum. It originally came from a Scottish settlement at Windmill Point near Fort Erie. People would join hands through the centre of the stone to seal an oath such as an engagement, marriage, promise or contract. The custom was based on the worship of the Norse god Odin and “the promise of Odin” was the strongest bond that Individuals could impose on themselves. This custom came with the Norse to Scotland and from there to the New World.
