These Viking Age runes are carved into a forest cliff in Veda, Vallentuna in Sweden. Deeming from the area, it is likely that a road passed the carving back in the day. The content is quite interesting. It is not just a memorial, but also a form of document establishing ownership over a Viking Age farm. The farm was purchased with wealth gained during an expedition. The inscription reads: (Old Norse runes to the latin alphabet): þurtsain × kiarþi| |if×tiʀ irinmunt × sun sin auk| |kaubti þinsa bu × auk × aflaþi × austr i karþum (Translated to Old Norse): Þorstæinn gærði æftiʀ Ærinmund, sun sinn, ok køypti þennsa by ok aflaði austr i Garðum. (Translated to English): Thorstain made this after Ärnmund, his son, and bought this farm and acquired (riches) in the east in Gardariki. . . . . . #modernviking #vikingstyle #staystrong #viking #vikings #norse #vikinglife #vikinglifestyle #norsemen #vikingpower #norsemythology #vikingsofinstagram #vikingsofinsta #nordic #shieldwall #grimfrost
