Hey Fourwinds,
I know of lots n lots of V and Z rod stones (and have visited a fair few). There are a couple of great books on the subject which I'll try n post later on.
As far as Z rod meanings go I read in one of Elizabeth Sutherlands books that it may represent a broken arrow and protection after death (at least that's what I tell folk when they ask about one of my Pictish tattoos- a serpent and Z rod).
We don't seem to know an awful lot about the Painted Ones (as the Romans dubbed us)- aye but they were a bunch of hard buggers;)
Martin the Pict (at least that what the sticker on my car says!)
