Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A fragmentary rune-stone, probably discovered during excavations in 1870 at Victoria Cave, carries the text oframr. The runes are of Viking type and are most closely paralleled among the inscriptions at Maeshowe, Orkney, where stone XI has the same personal name (recorded only once elsewhere) and uses an idiosyncratic form of the maðr-rune whose only other occurrence is on the Settle stone. Since James Farrer, who discovered the Maeshowe runes in 1861, lived at Ingleton near Settle there must inevitably be a suspicion that the runes were carved on a piece of slate from the cave in recent times, but such a suggestion is not entirely convincing.
