3 unusual facts about Jarlabanke Runestones


Jarlabanke Runestones

They were ordered by what appears to have been a chieftain named Jarlabanke Ingefastsson and his clan (Swedish: Jarlabankeätten), in Täby.

Five of the runestones contain very much the same message: "Jarlabanke had these stones made after himself while he was alive. He made this bridge for his soul. He alone owned all of Täby".

The road was made by Jarlabanke's clan and it went from the bay of Edsviken to Täby.
