Södermanland Runic Inscription 158
Södermanland Runic Inscription 158 or Sö 158 is the Rundata catalog number for a Viking Age memorial runestone located in Österberga, which is one kilometer southwest of Ärsta and three kilometers southwest of Runtuna, Södermanland County, Sweden, and in the historic province of Södermanland. The inscription includes an image of a ship and uses same-stave bind runes to commemorate a man described as being a thegn. Description This runestone was initially noted during the Swedish surveys of runestones in the late 17th century, and a drawing of the inscription made by Johan Göransson was published under the name Bautil in 1750. pp. 195-197. The runestone was then lost, but was rediscovered in 1951 near a farmhouse by Claes Widén and moved to its current location in 1984. The stone is made of granite and is 1.6 meters in height. The runic inscription consists of runic text carved on a serpent which arches over the image of a ship. Other runic inscriptions from the Viking Age ...

England Runestones
The England runestones ( Swedish: ''Englandsstenarna'') are a group of about 30 runestones in Scandinavia which refer to Viking Age voyages to England. They constitute one of the largest groups of runestones that mention voyages to other countries, and they are comparable in number only to the approximately 30 Greece RunestonesJansson 1980:34. and the 26 Ingvar Runestones, of which the latter refer to a Viking expedition to the Caspian Sea region. They were engraved in Old Norse with the Younger Futhark. The Anglo-Saxon rulers paid large sums, Danegelds, to Scandinavian Vikings who arrived to the English shores during the 990s and the first decades of the 11th century. Some runestones relate of these Danegelds, such as the Yttergärde runestone, U 344, which tells of Ulf of Borresta who received the danegeld three times, and the last one he received from Canute the Great. Canute sent home most of the Vikings who had helped him conquer England, but he kept a strong bodyguard, th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Västmanland Runic Inscription 22
Västmanland Runic Inscription 22 or Vs 22 is the Rundata designation for a Viking Age memorial runestone that was originally located at Ulvsta, but has been moved to Svana, which is about seven kilometers north of Skultuna, Västmanland County, Sweden, and which was in the historic province of Västmanland. Description The inscription on Vs 22 consists of runic text in the younger futhark on a serpent that encloses a central Christian cross, cross, with the head of the serpent below the cross. The inscription, which is 0.95 meters in height and on a granite stone, is classified as probably being carved in runestone style Pr3, which is also known as Urnes style. The uncertainty in the classification is due to the damaged ends of the runic text bands, which are used in the runestone classification system developed by Anne-Sophie Gräslund in the 1990s. In style Pr3, the ends of the runic bands have attached serpent heads depicted as seen in profile. Based on stylistic grounds, Vs 22 ...
