Runestone of the week
Originally uploaded by catarina.berg
This stone looks different from the other
ones with its sparse runes. It stands outside of the Cathedral of Uppsala.
It was rediscovered in a grave chapel inside the church in 1975 and then came to its present place.
The translation of the text reads:
"Ring and Hulte and Fastger had the stone raised after Vigmar, their father,
a good ship chieftain. Likbjörn carved."
The number of the stone is
Fv1976:104. - 1100th century A.D.
