I reckon that the Skyforge is perhaps the first structure in Skyrim. Call it a petty reason but the fact they both start with "sky" is perhaps not coinsidence. The Skyforge has the ability to create stronger steel then regular forges. In the real world, steel is made stronger with more carbon I believe, the TES equivilent is conundrum. Perhaps it has more of that metal in the forge itself? When it comes to its origin then that fact that it was Kyne is the most likely. The forge may have been made as a way of saying "This land shall be Skyrim" this could be true considering it is right in the middle of Skyrim and the name is similar as stated before. Perhaps it could be like the flag on the moon or in the TES universe; the hammer in Hammerfell. It is a landmark. That is what I think atleast, I can't think of anything better. Normally I love coming up with theories but I have little ideas when it comes to this...
