Archaeologists in Norway just unearthed the world’s oldest runestone—2,000 years old and carved way before the Vikings even hit their stride. The Svingerud Runestone, found in a burial mound, has ancient runes that could be someone’s family name. It’s wild to think people were experimenting with runic writing centuries before the Viking Age. This find totally rewrites what we thought we knew about Norse history! #HistoryNerd #Vikings #Archaeology #History
