Another thing I read in PS/SS that I had not noticed before is when 
Harry i getting his wand. Olivander states that James was good for 
transfigurations and Lillys was good for CHARMS!!! So there is a clue 
for POA and I thnk in coming books we may learn more of Lilies 
expertise of charms.  I think that it will be revealed that it was 
Lily's charm on Harry using the eihwaz rune that saved his life.  
This does not negate any cannon of Lily's love saving Harry.  She 
loved him so much that she put an ancient protection charm on him. 
The scar is just comfirmation of this. The force of the AK was at the 
spot where the scar is on Harry's forehead. It's analogous to a car 
alarm: you dont know it is there until it is tripped. 

In GOF, Harry tells DD what LV said about having the same blood 
protection that Harry has from Harry's mother.  ...."For a fleeting 
instant, Harry thought he saw a gleam of of something like triumph in 
DD eyes......" Could this mean that LV is thinking Harry is only 
proteced by Lily's blood, and DD knows it is more than that.  I think 
there have been posts on the meaning of that particular sentence. As 
I stated before, I think DD saw rune mark and recognized it for what 
it is.
