This Week’s Monolith: Lingsberg Runestone (U 240)
U 240
Pretty cool looking, right? Those nifty runes must say something important., right?
Translation:
“Danr and Húskarl and Sveinn and Holmfríðr, the mother and (her) sons, had this stone erected in memory of Halfdan, the father of Danr and his brothers; and Holmfríðr in memory of her husbandman.”
Nope, just a headstone.
Edit: There have been some questions about what exactly these weekly monoliths have to do with the blog. Let me put those to rest.
It’s called Angry Monolith, and they’re cool. Deal with it.
