  1. Since I hinted at vegetarian Vikings I've put a manicule on "An Early Meal - A Viking Age Cookbook & Culinary Odyssey". It's what it says on the tin, but if you want deeper info you can read about it here.

    The crowdfund is still ongoing, and there's still a need, so if you can - help out.

  5. This is Li gravfält - a burial site from the 9th and 10th century AD. It's very close to the Kattegat, so of course I expected lots of Viking Age finds. Over a hundred standing stones (up to 5 m tall!) and some ship stone settings have been placed here. They are not marked and only few graves have been researched, so we don't know for whom they were placed. There are even some older findings, of ancient roads and settlements. A remarkable place, surrounded by nice hiking trails - recommended if you are in Southern Sweden!

  15. Yesterday I visited Skepptuna church to look at a couple of runestones. Unfortunately the church was being renovated, and the main stone I wanted to look at was fenced in.

    This is the runestone U 358, which is raised in memory of Folkbjörn that died in Greece. Possibly as he worked for the Varangian guard. The stone was probably carved by Gunnar, though there is no carved signature.

    Transliteration:
    fulkmar × lit × risa × stin × þina × iftiʀ × fulkbiarn × sun × sin × saʀ × itaþis × uk miþ krkum × kuþ × ialbi × ans × ot uk salu

    Normalization:
    Folkmarr let ræisa stæin þenna æftiʀ Folkbiorn, sun sinn. Saʀ ændaðis ok með Grikkium. Guð hialpi hans and ok salu

    Translation:
    Folkmarr had this stone raised in memory of Folkbjǫrn, his son. He also met his end among the Greeks. May God help his spirit and soul.
