The term ogi gnui [< Tuadbe, ogi 'images' + Pytharnian gnui 'cut'] refers to one or more cut stone images that represent spirit creatures of the local landscape. The images help local humans identify and remember inhabitants and can be used as a place where to leave offerings to placate them. Scholars believe that ogi gnui have been used prior to the introduction of onkirgs by the Neptultchi.
Removing or desecrating the ogi gnui was considered a serious offense in ancient times and can be subject to a fine today.
