Lewis's fantasy novel series the Chronicles of Narnia, Aslan's How is a construction located south of the Great River in Narnia next to the Great Woods. It was built over the Hill of the Stone Table. It is a tell. The word "How" derives from the Old Norse haugr, meaning hill. In parts of England, it is a synonym for a barrow, or earthen burial-mound (see tumulus.)

The site is not referred to as "Aslan's How" until Prince Caspian, the events of which take place over a thousand Narnian years after The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. At some point during the absence of the Pevensie children, a barrow was raised over the remains of the broken Stone Table. Who built the mound, or why, is not explained by Lewis. It is possible that this action was undertaken by the superstitious Telmarines, who feared and despised anything to do with Old Narnia. Another possibility is that the Old Narnians themselves wished to protect the Stone Table fragments from desecration by hiding them from their enemies.

The runaway Prince Caspian flees into the forest from his evil uncle, King Miraz, and finds a host of good creatures and animals. When word gets out that the King's army is out to capture the Prince, he and his friends take cover inside Aslan's How. The How proves to be a reliable fortress. Miraz's army surrounds the mound and is fought off when the four Pevensies and Aslan return to Narnia1. The Horse and His Boy For more details on this topic, see The Horse and His Boy. Aslan's How is only mentioned once more in The Horse and His Boy2. As shown in the films This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards.

In the Chronicles of Narnia film series, the place is shown in various ways: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe In this film, Aslan sets the camp at another place from before only and not at Stone table. The Stone Table is shown in the cinema only for approximately 15 minutes. Jadis, the White Witch is bound by the others and it shown as a place with a high table and pillared by four pillars at four corners. The White Witch's army is all around. Aslan is killed. The next day, stone table is broken not by an earthquake but it breaks itself. The children hear the sound as they turn to leave, believing Aslan is dead. The breaking is not shown. The children hug Aslan, listen to his explanation for his death and they go to Beruna3. Prince Caspian For more details on this topic, see The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.

In this film, Stone Table is shown as Aslan's How and it is completely covered. It is a small place and dark and not as big as it was shown in the other film The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe. The walls are carved with images of Aslan, the Pevensie children, and Mr. Tumnus with the lamppost. Disney takes a step further, showing a ceremony to bring the White Witch back to life. A hag chants a spell and uses the White Witch's broken scepter to create ice between two of the four pillars near the Stone Table. The White Witch appears in the ice and asks for a drop of blood from Caspian X so that she may live again. The Pevensies come to his rescue, fighting and killing the hag, a werewolf and Nikabrik. The Witch then entices Peter and he lowers his sword. He reaches out and is about to give the blood when Edmund uses his sword to break the ice from behind.4. In both the movie and the book, The Stone Table is within Aslan's How.5 See also Narnia portal The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (film) Prince Caspian The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (film) Aslan Lucy Pevensie Susan Pevensie Beruna White Witch References ^ Prince Caspian by C S Lewis, Chapter 13: Sorcery And Sudden Vengeance ^ The Horse And His Boy By C S Lewis, Chapter 12: Shasta In Narnia ^ The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, A film by Disney Productions released on 9 December in Europe And North America. ^ Prince Caspian, a film by Disney Productions released on May 16 in the United States Of America ^ http://narnia.wikia.com/wiki/The_Stone_Table v · d · eThe Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Prince Caspian The Voyage of the Dawn Treader The Silver Chair The Horse and His Boy The Magician's Nephew The Last Battle Film · Soundtrack · Game Film · Soundtrack · Game Film · Soundtrack · Game         Main characters Aslan · Peter · Susan · Edmund · Lucy · Mr. Tumnus  · White Witch · Caspian · Trumpkin · Reepicheep · Eustace · Jill · Rilian · Puddleglum · Lady of the Green Kirtle · Shasta · Aravis · Bree · Hwin · Digory · Polly · Shift · Tash · All characters · All creatures Locations Narnia (world) · Narnia (country) · Archenland · Cair Paravel · Calormen · Charn  · Telmar  · Wood between the Worlds · Aslan's How · Aslan's Country · Underland · Lantern Waste · All places Adaptations ITV TV serial · Animated TV film · BBC TV serial · Film series (Cast list · Critical response) Other Timeline  · Dawn Treader · First Battle of Beruna · Second Battle of Beruna · Religion Narnia Portal
