- Follow me on a tour around the most interesting Rune stones in Västerhaninge and Österhaninge where I live. Hear about the people and the lives of the Vikings who lived here 1 000 years ago, and why they raised the stones.
After loving the series Vikings, I visited Sweden and Norway in 2019 And again 2020...I'm from East Africa but have lots of respect of the Nordic culture and history. The people are also amazing, kinda shy, polite and found most down to earth..
I visited Västerhaninge...so nice to see this video.
Bless you all.
visited zimbabwe fort ? hand off fatima ? mid sahar rocks ? zimbabwe devil? mountän v?v
That is so cool that you can walk out of your house and go see and touch a 1000 year old Viking rune stone!
As a Swedish American I absolutely love seeing my homeland and you do an amazing job and I appreciate you sharing all your knowledge.
Part of my family is Swedish, my 2x great grandparents on my dads mother side came to America from Sweden. Would love to go to Sweden one day and learn more of that side of my family, and more about Swedish history and culture
You should watch Jonna jintons youtube channel then🇸🇪💙💛
Thank you for doing this video! My kids are enjoying seeing these from across the world.
That's where i live, I see that first runestone almost everyday xD
Very interesting, informative video! Thanks Johan!
Thank you for this great content like this johan.Honestly, i'm from Asian country but in all of my heart i adore everything about viking,scandinavia culture which i have a dream to visits sweden someday.
It was nice going on an adventure with you through Sweden. Hopefully we can do this again soon. 🍺
Stort tack. 🙂 A huge thank You
You are an amazing person for doing this thank you very much
Kul och bra videor ! Var själv i släbro och titta på hällristningar och runstenar för ca 2 månader sen .
Just found this channel. THANK YOU SIR. My grandfather was from Sweden. So I enjoyed this video and will watch your other ones as well OH and Sub also lol
I am just a random American man, and I must say. Im addicted to your channel. My friend told me his family has a background with Viking blood, and even have their own family crest or something like that. I’ve been intrigued ever since. Your channel is very informative, I’ve learned a lot!
Hello from Milford Michigan USA just subscribed love your content
Great. Thank you! 🙂 more coming up!
Just tracked mine ancestry back to the Viking age. Very fascinating. Have always been fascinated by it, and now to learn where my Ancestors came from. Would love to see this in person.
I hope you didn't pay for that information. No one can trace their family back to the Viking Age.
This is an important channel!
So interested in viking history... great videos very informative
So exciting to see this.. Thank you
Thank you for showing around. Sad to see the rune stones are not well protected yet how important piece of history it is. My internet is paid off for today with this useful video.
Thank you so much for the wonderful tour! So true about the occasional disregard for ancient burial grounds…late one afternoon In 1985, I was walking by a very old church in the old walled town of Visby, Gotland, and saw that a back-hoe tractor was being used to hack a deep pipe-channel of some sort, right through a cobblestone car park within the churchyard, just a few short meters away from the church building itself...curious to get a look at the soil being brought up, I noticed human bones scattered throughout the soil...the operator of the machine noticed my interest and alarm and said "you think those bones are interesting, look at THIS" as he pointed out what looked to be a stone slab-lined AD 9oo's type of grave that his tractor scoop had transected, it had just gouged right through the center of it...when I asked him why archaeologists were not on the spot, he gave a Gallic shrug [Nordic shrug won't describe it here] and stated that "this stuff is EVERYWHERE here, if we had to do it that way, nothing would get done!"
I hope there is proper archaeological protocol in place now!
Där jag bor finns väldigt många runstenar, vi hade en äldre man Hugo Sabel som var väldigt duktig och lärde oss skolungar en hel del 🙏🏼👌🏼 jag bor i Uppl.Väsby..
Snart när snön är borta ska jagåka dit o kolla... :)
I'd love to see the rune stones from the Bure kinship. My great grandparents
Very interesting videos. Thanks . I will wait for more
Assassins Creed Valhalla lead me here haha but great video, keep them coming!
We are trying to figure out what the rune stones are for in the game and you appeared in the recommended for you so you're doing something right
So interesting. Thank you!
Today I’m learning about the sun god.
I noticed the sign on the first runstone says “Sol” if you’re looking. Can anyone else see it ?
I found out yesterday my Irish surname(Sweeney) possibly came from a variation of “Sven”.
Which you were also talking about.
May mean nothing,
May mean everything
Thank you for sharing!
This is very interesting, thank you!
Thanks for doing this!!! These videos are amazing!
Great videos! I appreciate all the work you put into them!
Yet another great video Johan I really enjoy the videos you post
Awsome video
Koko
Keep on keepin on 😉
Skål 🍻
Makes you wonder how many rune stones there are to be discovered still. Curious if you ever use paper and charcoal or chalk to make impressions of the stones. I think the animal is a dog maybe the father was particularly fond of or perhaps a wolf but it does look more dog like. Then again not knowing the ability of maker it might not be that accurate a depiction. I will check on rune stones along the great lakes in America and up in Minnesota Vinland as they called it.
Enjoying your videos don't worry about apologizing when you make little mistakes in English you speak it very well and 100% better then most of us speak Swedish.
All history matters! All the old kingdoms and their customs hero’s and people should be keep as much as possible! we are but the people who go before us.
sweden reminds me of New Hampshire / Nermont in New England, USA.
Think it’s a deer on the second runestone. What a great video
Thanks! :)
Wow
Amazing
excellent
We couldn't have these in America. The hey would 100% be vandalized.
To be fair, in the US, we have a very different history. Our culture isn't so much marked by Rune stones but rather land markers i.e., Devil's Tower. Much of it is Spanish and Native American land markers that dot our vast landscape. We do have more contemporary markers such as names given to interstates and towns after certain battles and people i.e., Gettysburg, Dodge City. So it's kind of a broad assumption to say that we can't have such things because they'd be vandalized.
There are some rune stones in America found along the great lakes and into Minnesota. Some consider them fake others real. I guess the idea of vikings being in America long before that Christopher Columbus guy ruffles some feathers. Vikings did travel long and far including going into the middle east to get Damascus steel which they made into their finest swords of the best quality. There's copper that was mined from Michigan that made its way to Europe to be made into bronze during the bronze ages also. Then there is the place called Cahokia in America that we don't know who lived there.
Sir this Chanel Is awesome , support from México ! I'm addicted your videos 💪😎
Thank you! :)
The reason behind the higher sea levels back then was bedcause the melted glaciers had not had much time to allow the land below them to rebound upwards now that the weight of the ice cap was gone. In fact all the lands in Europe and North America are still rebounding upwards since the loss of the ice, So in another 1,000 years the lands will be even higher than they are now, though climate change may raise the sea levels even higher than they are now even with the land uplift,
thats cool 10outof10
Thanks :)
Didn't the muppets have a swedish chef? The most famous Swede.
Sorry, I don't mean to be disrespectful to Sweden.
The animal might be some kind of elk or deer. It seems to have some anylrtd.
It's amazing to think that people have been looking at these stones for a thousand years and just thinking wow. It takes more than a nimbwit black metal musician to eradicate these!
Maybe next time take hot water with you in a termo flask typo idk but this way you can remove the snow just an idea
I think he meant for the plaque. When water gets into cracks freezes over time they can crack and that's a naturally occurring process. These stones are 1000 years and older they were the most permanent things a viking could leave a message on.
it’s gotta be a reindeer
you still around?
Johan are the Rune Stones protected in Sweden?
Yes they are protected by law but they are not so well guarded or looked after unfortunately

Viking power vull
Midgårsormen och vargen kanske på den andra runstenen
The Danish runestone "Jellingestenen"
They say its Jesus. They say its Odin. they are both wrong.
I'm positive it's Ragnar Lodbrog laying with snakes. ;)
Did sweden have Vikings?
Yes.
It's a doggie
