The Krogsta Rune Stone (U1125) - Rear / Side B

Subject

Rune stones

Description

The Krogsta rune stone dates from the 6th Century, and is famous for its depiction of a human figure as well as being the only older futhark rune stone from Uppland still in situ. According to the Samnordisk Runtextdatabas, the inscription on the front (or side A) is indecipherable. The inscription on the rear (side B, pictured here) may refer to the stone itself. Together they read:

§A mwsïeij- 
§B sïainaz 

§A ... 
§B stainaz(?) 

§A ... 
§B stone(?)
