history

The stone was discovered by farmer Julius Boman in 1894 when his stallion broke loose and the leash got caught in a stone wall, causing the stone to come off when the horse was brought down. The farmer noticed the strange signs on the stone and occasionally spoke about them. Finally his brother, who was a teacher, reported about it, so that the find in November 1895 attracted the interest of some scientists. In August 1896 it was taken to the National Museum in Stockholm, where it was examined more closely by Sophus Bugge , who in 1897 published a treatise on the inscription in the journal Arkiv för nordisk filologi .

The stone wall was probably not the original location for the stone; rather, researchers such as Sophus Bugge assumed that the stone belonged to a grave complex or was a grave object.

description

The fragment is an irregularly rounded granite stone (approx. 70 × 52 cm) with a straight top edge. There is a multi-line inscription attached parallel to the upper edge (rune height: 5–7 cm). The runes are each in a kind of frame, or are separated from each other by dividing lines. The inscription is three lines, the rune heads touch both the base line and the upper runic row or the upper edge. The lines are incompletely filled, only the top two are complete, the third line on the left only contains six characters, the fourth has no content. The age of the inscription is unknown, but it is believed to be around the year 600.

The statements of the runes were interpreted differently. One reading is: "runo fahi raginakun [d] o - I paint a rune, one from the councilors"
or Paul Herrmann: "I write runes from gods ... we two women made the consecration in memory"
