[gothic-l] The Eruli and the Stentoften Rune Inscription

[Bertil Haggman]

Tore,

Thank you for your question. In short I have tried
to introduce the Stentoften rune inscriptions as
a sign that the Eruli arrived in this area likely
in the 510s AD. The names are those of the
Eruli royal family and Stentfoften is aound a
century older than assumed (erected between
500 - 550 AD). A kingdom was in existance
comprising western Blekinge. eastern Scania
and Varend. This does not exclude the
possibility that the Eruli continued further north.

Erulicall/Gothically

Bertil
