You could always post it on to the Maeshowe site so that we can all have a read.

Could there be an influence of 'double entendre', as in the Norse sounding as Maiden Hill/Treasure Hill but meaning Low Hill in Gaelic. We have already seen how much our Viking friends enjoy ribaldry from their graffiti.

Amyway, its only a suggestion, but I would like to read any research you may have.

Thanks,

FTC
