The VikingAge RuneStones Custom and Commemoration in Early Medieval Scandinavia
Author: Birgit Sawyer
This is the first historical study of the whole body of late Viking runic inscription stones in Scandinavia. The 2300 inscriptions yield unexpected information on a wide range of topics, including the conversion of Scandinavia to Christianity, the growth of royal power and, most important of all, the inheritance customs of the period.
