During an investigation in 1978, however, the find place could not be verified (according to the RAÄ inventory book 1978-06-14). According to Lindqvist (1941/42 I, pp. 40, 47–48, 58–61; 1964), picture stones of the cist stone Type, to which the stone from Smiss certainly belongs (see IX), were used either pairwise representing grave markers or in a group of four forming cist-shaped (grave or sacrificial) monuments.

However, the relief figures are less than a millimetre high and thus hard to identify. In addition, the right part of the depiction in the main field is weathered and almost obliterated. \n\nThe small head part of the cist stone is decorated with a horizontal row of triangles or a zigzag pattern. The depiction in the rectangular main field of the stone remains completely unclear in Olof Sörling’s drawing, which is the only image of the stone published in “Gotlands Bildsteine”. It was described by Sune Lindqvist as an unclear ribbon pattern, probably carved by a “bungler” (Lindqvist 1964, 66). A photo of the stone without paint is published by Lindqvist in 1964 (fig. 19), showing the grooves of the chisel and the weathered surface of the right part quite well. A photo of the painted stone dating to 1933, however, is kept in ATA. It shows a much more detailed view of the ribbon-like elements in the left part of the simply framed picture field as well as a larger, possibly anthropomorphic figure in the centre. Above this assumed figure a roughly circular ribbon can be seen. \n\nAccording to Sigmund Oehrl (2019, pp. 243–245), who re-examined the stone and analysed it based on 3D- and RTI-documentation, the figure in the centre represents a man with horned headgear, depicted en face, and the ribbon-like elements must be understood as a pair of bent spears crossing each other. In addition, according to Oehrl, the man holds two short staff-shaped objects in his right hand, crossing each other as well, forming a Saint Andrew’s cross. Thus, the carving represents a known motif which can also be observed on Viking Age coins, the Oseberg tapestry, and a silver figurine from Ekhammar in Uppland (Oehrl 2019, pl. 294a–e).

A horned man escorting a ship, however, can definitively be seen on the Vendel/Viking Age fragment GP 339 Rute St. Valle 2 and probably also on the large type D cist stone GP 110 Gothem kyrka III. Beyond that, the motif occurs frequently in Vendel and Viking Period art (the corpus is collected by Helmbrecht 2011, pp. 140–146). It is very likely that these figures represent a Norse deity (detailed, with literature and sources: Oehrl 2017; Oehrl 2019, pp. 233–242). That they can represent the god Wodan/Óðinn seems to be shown by the fact that some of them are one-eyed, like the so called ʻweapon dancerʼ on one of the Torslunda models (Arrhenius/Freij 1992, p. 76, fig. 6; Helmbrecht 2011, p. 168). Óðinn is described as one-eyed in Skaldic and Eddic poetry since the 10th century. The horned and one-eyed figure from Torslunda is accompanied by a warrior with a wolf-like animal mask, reminiscent of the úlfheðnar – animal warriors mentioned in early Skaldic poetry who, according to Snorri Sturlusson’s Ynglinga saga, are closely linked to the god Óðinn (Samson 2011; 2020). On Vendel Period helmet plates, a small horned warrior of that kind is hovering behind a horse rider, like an eidolon, assisting him in throwing his spear, acting as divine helper in battle. This motif seems to be inspired by Roman depictions of the numen victoriae (Hauck 1981). It can be connected to Old Norse written sources (Beck 1964, pp. 31–45) like the Skaldic poem Gráfeldardrápa written by Glúmr Geirason (after 974), which tells that the gods guide or steer (stýra) the heroes on the battlefield. In the Eddic poem Hlǫðskviða stanza 28 (probably 9th century) the King of the Goths invokes Óðinn, god of war and father of the fallen, to steer his throwing spear (láti svá Óðinn flein fliúga – Neckel/Kuhn 1983, p. 309).

Thus, the stone could be interpreted as one of two stones marking a burial at the head and foot end or as a stone cist consisting of four slabs, representing either a grave marker or a kind of sacrificial cist (Lindqvist 1964). Most cist stones represent late-type picture stones, belonging to ʻAbschnittʼ C/D or E according to Lindqvist. There is only a very small number of Type B cist stones known to date (see in particular Halla Broa V–VI). According to Lindqvist, the cist stone from Garda Smiss most likely represents a Type C stone but could also be assigned to ʻAbschnittʼ D, however, without giving sufficient reasons (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, pp. 48, 50). As a result, the stone can only be roughly dated between the 8th and 10th centuries. The most striking parallels concerning the probable picture motif date to the 9th and 10th centuries.

Pettersson, who was living on the farm the Stora Havor, had already discovered artefacts from a grave in the cemetery a few years earlier and sold them to Gabriel Gustafson. The purchase of the grave inventory in 1877 and the discovery of the image stone four years later prompted Gustafson to apply to Kungliga Vitterhets Historie och Antikvitets Akademien for funds to excavate the Havor cemetery, which took place between 1884–1888 (Toplak, in press). \n\nThe cemetery of Havor lies in the southern part of Gotland, on the southern banks of the former lake and later moorland of Mästermyr, on the northern outskirts of Hablingbo parish, some kilometres east of the western shore of Gotland. The area, which today is widely forested, stretches around 750 meters from east-northeast to west-southwest on a gravel ridge. Around 260 of approximately 370 registered graves were excavated, dating from the Pre-Roman Iron Age to the late Viking Age, with a hiatus in the late Vendel Period and the Early Viking Age (Nylén 1955, pp. 61–64; Toplak, in press). The north-eastern and probably oldest part of the cemetery was heavily disturbed by gravel extraction from the middle of the 19th century onwards, which led to the discovery of the picture stone Hablingbo Havor I, and the extent as well as the original number of burials in this area remain uncertain. Some smaller groups of graves can be found at the southwestern periphery of the cemetery, either constituting the outer edges of the burial area or belonging to separate cemeteries. The cemetery at Havor is part of a unique complex with an uninterrupted continuity of settlement from the late Bronze Age to the late Viking Age (Manneke 2005; Manneke et al. 2013). Approximately 800 meters east of the cemetery lie a ringfort, several buildings with stone foundations as well as the remains of further settlements in the direct surrounding area. The ringfort was built at the latest at the end of the Pre-Roman Iron Age and was used in several phases at least until the end of the Migration Period as a meeting place and arena for socio-political or religious activities. Remains of settlements north of the ringfort can be dated back to the late Bronze Age or early Iron Age and are therefore slightly older than the earliest burials from the Pre-Roman Iron Age in the cemetery. Several stone foundations south of the ringfort and the rich finds from settlements, graves and the ringfort – such as Roman imports or golden jewellery and especially the unique hoard with a golden neck ring (Nylén 1962; 2005) – bear witness to the great regional significance of Havor as a socio-political or religious central place in the Roman Iron Age and the Migration Period. Following a decline of Havor in the Vendel Period, the late Viking Age burials attest a revival of the local society, probably due to increasing trading activities, but also a significant return to older traditions such as the re-use of older graves or the incorporation of picture stones in burials (Toplak 2022; in press). \n\nThe circumstances of the find as well as the exact location of the picture stone remain uncertain. The location was roughly described and sketched by Nordin in a letter to Riksantikvarieämbete, dated October 16th, 1918. It is likely that the picture stone Hablingbo Havor I came from a demolished grave in the central area of the cemetery, next to the winding path that crosses the cemetery from east to west and around 40 metres to the east of several large grave mounds (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, pp. 53–54). The picture stone was probably re-used as a grave slab or as part of the stone cist in a Viking Age burial, just as the picture stones GP 133–138 Hablingbo Havor II–VII (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, pp. 54–56; Toplak 2022; in press) and several other picture stones on Gotlandic Viking Age cemeteries (see Burström 1996; Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 III, pp. 582–584; Rundkvist 2012; Toplak 2022; Oehrl/Toplak, in press). \n\nMT\n" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2179", "value_resource_id": 2179, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2179", "display_title": "GP 133 Hablingbo Havor II", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/e0f6b96868dbac9dc4e4f6edd7f11522f42381c6.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0133.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2180", "value_resource_id": 2180, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2180", "display_title": "GP 134 Hablingbo Havor III", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/d62cd22696351df692849295269f7adea50655e9.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0134.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2181", "value_resource_id": 2181, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2181", "display_title": "GP 135 Hablingbo Havor IV", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/561dc5b7c26a30c2766f576bc70d6aa4614d01be.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0135.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2182", "value_resource_id": 2182, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2182", "display_title": "GP 136 Hablingbo Havor V", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/f7661acbdc9db5ff8d8bfb8234edecd88e03f9cb.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0136.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2183", "value_resource_id": 2183, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2183", "display_title": "GP 137 Hablingbo Havor VI", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/3aa7d5269809c83d0b6cb22a23d021e7b3d634e6.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0137B.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2184", "value_resource_id": 2184, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2184", "display_title": "GP 138 Hablingbo Havor VII", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/d4184567a29128132e6603f5758b0d4ad10c051b.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0138.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" } ], "ai2:measurementsMaterialAndCondition": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 283, "property_label": "Measurements, Material and Condition", "is_public": true, "@value": "“Limestone slab, 12.5–16 cm thick.

In Sörling’s drawing (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 54), an edge still extends to the root on the right broad side, while the borders were reconstructed along the full length of the visible part of the obverse in Lindqvist’s reconstruction (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, fig. 18). Along the broad sides, the decorated borders consist of triangular lines bordered by lateral side-lines. These meet at the upper narrow side with a double row of arcs enclosed by two outer boundary lines and a dividing line in between. “In the vertical borders, the lines creating the pattern are carved deep and wide in their middle parts, so that they form almost boat-like shapes”, as Lindqvist (1941/42 II, p. 54) notes. The centre of the obverse is decorated with a 38.0 cm large roundel with a whorl rosette enclosed by a double circle line and prongs running along the outer circle line. Two antithetical snake-like animals with simple S-shaped bodies are carved in the upper corners of the obverse between the roundel and the borders. In Sörling’s drawing, the head of the right snake is no longer visible while the left snake opens its mouth with a tongue sticking out. On the photograph of the repainted stone presented by Lindqvist (1941/42 I, fig. 18), the left snake’s head shows a large eye and a long distinct jaw as well as one (or several?) antenna or a horn while the open mouth of the right snake can be identified. Furthermore, both animals (snakes, seahorses or worms/dragons?) show spikes or bristle-like hair (Oehrl 2019a, p. 109), continuously running along the body of the left snake and clustered in three groups at the body of the right snake. Directly below the roundel two antithetical quadrupeds are depicted. In Lindqvist’s photograph, both animals are depicted in a similar posture, practically mirroring each other. The body of the left animal appears almost naturalistic yet ending in an elongated head with a spiked ear and a long mouth with a hooked upper jaw. The body of the right animal is far more compact and ends in a gooseneck-like head with mouth and jaws similar to the opposite quadruped. In contrast, the left animal in Sörling’s drawing is smaller and crouched, its body resembling a carnivore while head and snout appear equine. The right animal seems to be shying or rearing; the distinct head on the gooseneck is crowned with two horns or ears and the snout ends in an upturned hook. A third reconstruction of the images is depicted on a photograph of an earlier repainting of the picture stone from 1929, showing a precursor to Lindqvist’s later reading (Oehrl 2019a, table 129d). The only difference from the later reconstruction published in “Gotlands Bildsteine” is the vague shade of an anthropomorphic figure on the back of the left quadruped, possibly showing a rider (ibid. p. 149). It was probably based on this earlier reconstruction that Karl Hauck interpretated both animals as horses with riders holding reins (Oehrl 2019a, p. 149). During new investigations using RTI-viewer and 3D-scanning, Sigmund Oehrl could confirm Lindqvist’s reconstruction of the snake-like animal’s bodies. He could thus prove that the animals mirror each other – an assumption that was criticized in the meantime due to the poor preservation (Larsen 2009, 18). Furthermore, he could add more details to Lindqvist’s reconstruction of the head of the right animal (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 149–150). Hauck’s interpretation of two riders on horseback, in return, was rejected by Oehrl based on his analyses. He was able to identify a presumably anthropogenic depression above the left animal’s body in the RTI-viewer, which corresponds to the area painted by Lindqvist in his first reconstruction from 1929 and which could represent a rider on the animal’s back. An equivalent on the opposite animal, however, is missing as are indications of reins (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 80, 150). \n\nMT\n" } ], "ai2:interpretations": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@value": "The roundel with a whorl rosette, surrounded by a corona of rays or spikes in the centre of the depiction as a variant of a regularly occurring motif can most likely be interpreted as a symbol of the sun (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 124–125). More elaborate information on the possible interpretation of whorl motifs as sun symbols and the iconography of the Type A picture stones can be obtained in the article on GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV. \n\nThe two antithetical snake-like animals in the upper edges of the obverse might represent Mediterranean Sea-creatures such as dolphins, seahorses, ketoi or other mythological, stylised sea creatures. Anders Larsen (2009, pp. 40–41) suggests that these animals on several picture stones such as GP 263 Lärbro Pavals reflect a purely decorative adoption of the antique motif of seahorses which appear on many Roman mosaics while Hauck interprets these animals as dolphins as they are known from Roman and early Christian gravestones, representing psychopomps that guide the souls of the deceased into the afterlife (Hauck 1983a, pp. 536, 547), thus illustrating Mediterranean influences on the early picture stones (see also Lindqvist 1941/42 I, p. 89; II, pp. 91–92; Holmqvist 1952a, pp. 10–16, figs. 7–10; 1976, p. 562; Hauck 1983a, pp. 547, 551). Furthermore, as Oehrl (2019a, pp. 143, 294) observes, these animals might also show “the northern version of the antique Ceto” as a kind of sea monster. For more information on sea creatures of Roman origin depicted on Type A picture stones see in particular GP 263 Lärbro Pavals, GP 197 Hellvi Ire IV, GP 44 Bro kyrka II, GP 173 Hangvar Austers I, GP 269 Martebo kyrka 2. \n\nAccording to the classical reading, the two antithetical quadrupeds below the roundel could represent a horse fight, a motif which can probably be identified on several early picture stones (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 21, 62–63, 151, 158). Ritual horse fights are documented from later periods (Beck 2003; Stylegar 2006; 2014) and the topic of horse fights (called hestavíg in Old Norse literature) and horse sacrifice in the iconography of the (early) Gotland picture stones has often been discussed, see in particular GP 198 Hellvi Ire 7 and the following literature: Gjessing 1943, pp. 29–30; Lindqvst 1955, pp. 41–43; Ellmers 1970, pp. 243–245; Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 26; Althaus 1993, pp. 87–89, 192–193; Lamm 1999; Beck 2003, pp. 96–97; Guber 2011, pp. 55–56; Pesch 2015a, p. 357; Oehrl 2019a, pp. 62–63. Large quantities of horse bones without traces of slaughter have been found next to the ring wall and in the settlement of Havor (Manneke et al. 2013, pp. 106–107). In addition, besides an interpretation as a fortified pen for breeding horses, it was suggested that the ring wall at Havor could have been used as an arena for horse fights in its early phase during the Roman Iron Age (Manneke 2005, p. 134). Thus, the interpretation of the two antithetic quadrupeds as horses incited to fight would find a concrete context in Havor (Toplak, in press). \n\nBased on Oehrl’s new results which suggest the existence of a rider on the left quadruped, the depiction could be interpreted as an example of the motif group of the mounted beast fighter (“Untierkämpfer”), which also appears on several early picture stones (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 158–160), and which would also explain the less naturalistic appearance of the right animal. In the context of the stylised sun symbol, the whole scene could allude to ideas of rebirth – the solar cycle as overcoming darkness and death, personified by the beast (see also Hauck 1983a, p. 547). \n\nMT\n" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2395", "value_resource_id": 2395, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2395", "display_title": "GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/a0f3efc5fb4baf2ee7d66f7a01baf52e87912a20.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0350.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2309", "value_resource_id": 2309, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2309", "display_title": "GP 263 Lärbro Pavals", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/4b5e49ddf66bf244da67ebcdc242886c69150881.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0263.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2243", "value_resource_id": 2243, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2243", "display_title": "GP 197 Hellvi Ire IV", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/94855a3d27d51b795f42d8419b4eef1c2ec89904.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0197.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2091", "value_resource_id": 2091, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2091", "display_title": "GP 44 Bro kyrka II", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/4b84267d54155e216a589788ea581cbbf000190f.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0044.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2219", "value_resource_id": 2219, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2219", "display_title": "GP 173 Hangvar Austers I", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/6f38a704d306415d3ec0af60e175fec62fba4355.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0173.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2315", "value_resource_id": 2315, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2315", "display_title": "GP 269 Martebo kyrka 2", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/778ee1610e36237b90205d0a244c65ba86aa6820.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0269.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2244", "value_resource_id": 2244, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2244", "display_title": "GP 198 Hellvi Ire 7" } ], "ai2:typeAndDating": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 287, "property_label": "Type and Dating", "is_public": true, "@value": "Axe-shaped picture stone representing an Early Type monument, belonging to Lindqvist’s “Abschnitt” A (circa AD 400–600; Lindqvist 1941/42 I, pp. 28, 110; see also Oehrl 2019a, pp. 8–10). Lindqvist classifies the fragment as representative of the first “Großsteingruppe”, group 4 – “Vallstenagruppe”, named after the stone GP 537 Vallstena Vallstenarum I. Characteristic of this group of monuments, consisting only of GP 537 Vallstena Vallstenarum I and Hablingbo Havor I, is the limitation to only one roundel (see VII).

Martin Rundkvist, in turn, suggests a typological classification of the outline shapes of the picture stones and defines GP 133 Hablingbo Havor II as Type dwarf 1 (Rundkvist 2012, pp. 155 – 160, table 3). \n\nA later dating to the 6th and 7th centuries as suggested by Wilhelm Holmqvist (1976, p. 563) was rejected by Oehrl (2019, p. 10). Lindqvist’s dating to the Migration Period finds support in the archaeological material from the cemetery of Havor which demonstrates a last phase of socio-political, economical, and perhaps even religious importance of the society at Havor and a rapid decline in the early Vendel Period (Toplak, in press). \n\nMT\n" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 287, "property_label": "Type and Dating", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2581", "value_resource_id": 2581, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2581", "display_title": "GP 537 Vallstena Vallstenarum (I)", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/330eb9346b652456ce190e40e3cd71bf7dcd07ae.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0537.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 287, "property_label": "Type and Dating", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2179", "value_resource_id": 2179, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2179", "display_title": "GP 133 Hablingbo Havor II", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/e0f6b96868dbac9dc4e4f6edd7f11522f42381c6.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0133.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" } ], "ai2:shapeLindqvist": [ { "type": "customvocab:3", "property_id": 305, "property_label": "Lindqvist Shape", "is_public": true, "@value": "Tall stone" } ], "ai2:typeLindqvist": [ { "type": "customvocab:2", "property_id": 303, "property_label": "Lindqvist Type", "is_public": true, "@value": "A (ca. 400-600)" } ], "ai2:runicInscriptionYesNo": [ { "type": "customvocab:5", "property_id": 317, "property_label": "Runic Inscription or not", "is_public": true, "@value": "No" } ], "ai2:references": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 288, "property_label": "References", "is_public": true, "@value": "Lindqvist 1941/42 I, p. 28, fig. 18, 366; II, pp. 53–54, fig. 366; Arrhenius/Holmqvist 1960, p. 176; Holmqvist 1952a, pp. 9–10, 12; 1976, p. 563; Lamm/Nylén 2003, pp. 21; Hauck 1983a, pp. 544, 552, 559, fig. 17; Oehrl 2007, p. 371; 2019a, pp. 9–10, 79–80, 84, 109, 145, 148–151, 158, 286, 294; II, table 1h, 87e5, 129–134; Larsen 2009, 18; Guber 2011, p. 121 cat. no. 24; Rundkvist 2012, p. 159, table 3; Oehrl/Toplak, in press; Toplak, in press.

The farm belongs to the community of Högbro. Since time immemorial, two important country roads, the road Halla–Viklau and the road Roma-Sjonhem (ʻVisbyvägenʼ) intersect here, where a rise consisting of gravel (the ʻhigh bridgeʼ = Högbro) clearly emerges out of the terrain, leading across the great bog system Romamyr-Stormyr. Both roads in turn are intersected by the railway line Roma-Etelhem. The railway intersects both roads a few hundred metres to the west and southwest of the crossing, respectively. During the 19th century, the Högbro elevation was severely diminished and large parts of the Broa cemetery were destroyed by clearing and cultivation, gravel mining, house building, railway and road construction, as well as deliberate grave robbing. Many finds from Broa were sold on the antiquities market during this time, with many acquired by ATA. Unfortunately, the large and highly important cemetery of Högbro-Broa is still not published adequately; its present documentation is incomplete and confusing. The best overview about the history and state of research is given by Lena Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, pp. 621–623; IV:1, pp. 324–347). \n\nThe first professional and large-scale excavation took place in 1899, conducted by Hans Hansson, who unearthed 14 graves in a small area next to the intersection, just south of the road Roma–Sjonhem and east of the road to Viklau. One further large-scale excavation was carried out in 1981–82 by Ann-Marie Pettersson, who investigated 120 graves (9 inhumation, 102 cremation, 9 without bones) in a small area (circa 700 m2) about 50 m north of the road Roma–Sjonhem and about 40 m east of the road to Halla (Broe 1:71; see the report compiled by Daniel Langhammer from 2012, RAGU dnr 13/82, 789/84). Apart from that, several minor and poorly documented investigations took place, in the beginning of the 20th century and, in particular, during the 1930s and the early 1940s. \n\nTwo larger areas are registered by ATA, a burial ground north of the road Roma-Sjonhem (ATA Halla 46:1) and a burial ground south of the road (ATA Halla 48:1). The first one (46:1) covers an area of circa 120 x 110 m (E–W) and contains 66 circular stone settings and 120 investigated flat graves. The other one (48:1) is about 300 x 120 m (N-S) and features 202 circular stone settings. Several other registered monuments, about 15 stone settings, 2 stone kists and 1 gravklot (large spherical stone) seem to belong to the Broa grave field as well (ATA Halla 1:1, 1:2, 74:1, 78:1, 79:1; Roma 31:1, 31:2, 32:1). Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, p. 622) estimates the number of investigated graves alone at about 300 to 400. The actual size and extent of the cemetery, however, remains uncertain. \n\nThe oldest investigated burials can be dated to the Roman Iron Age although some unexcavated stone settings are typical for the Pre-Roman Iron Age. Most of the graves, however, date to the Migration, Vendel and Viking Periods. First and foremost, the grave field is well-known and frequently cited for some particularly important finds such as the decorated horse harness from the equestrian burial discovered in 1899, after which the Broa Style is named (Salin 1922; Thunmark-Nylén 1992; 1995–2006 IV:1, pp. 325–326), the lyre bridge of amber from the same grave (Reimers 1980), and many remarkable finds of glass vessels from all periods (Nylén 1969). Furthermore, there are several elite warriors’s graves containing fragments of ring-swords as well as a Vendel helmet (Nerman 1969–1975 I:1, p. 29; II, fig. 601). \n\nRegarding the picture stones, the exact location of the find spots is difficult to determine in most cases, and their contexts and relation to the known parts of the cemetery remain unclear. Most of them originate from the railway line and the area west of it (called ʻBrandenʼ) and the rest from the area east of the road to Halla, between the road and the border to Roma (ʻKlosterängenʼ). Lindqvist (1941/42 II, fig. 378) provides a map, which was primarily composed at the National Heritage Board (RAÄ) based on the information kept in ATA. It identifies the location of the find places of the stones as carefully as they could be determined at the time of Lindqvist. \n\nAccording to information given in a report about new acquisitions of SHM during the year 1906, the picture stones Halla Broa V–VI were found “[…] in a grave, from which two or three years ago finds (ring brooches) had been sent (cf. Inv. 11939, 11987, or 12087)” (Fornvännen 1906, pp. 209–210; cf. Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 61). The mentioned numbers represent Viking Period grave inventories, among them ring brooches dating to the 10th and 11th centuries (Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 IV:1, p. 316–318; Rundkvist 2012, p. 152 no. 12). Lindqvist (1941/42 I, p. 40) states that the picture stones were found as building material in a Viking Age stone mound. According to a letter by Wennersten from 1905-03-07 (ATA Go Halla sn, Broa vol. III), the stones were found some years before by the landowner Vilhelm Olsson on his property, probably on a field called ʻStrandbergsåkerʼ. Two gravklot were found on this occasion as well. The find spot, where former landowners had already found many graves, is situated about 50 m east of the road to Halla and about 100 m north of the road to Sjonhem (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, fig. 378), i.e., close to the area RAÄ Halla 46:1. However, Wennersten was not able to reconstruct the original arrangement and the relation of both stone slabs to each other. Surprisingly, Wennersten’s letter from 1905 does not mention that the stones were incorporated into a mound (Stenqvist 2014, p. 12). \n\nAccording to Lindqvist (1941/42 I, pp. 40, 47–48, 58–61; 1964, pp. 42–84), small picture stones such as Halla Broa V–VI, featuring a wave-shaped upper edge (cist stones), were originally used either pairwise representing grave markers or in a group of four forming cist-shaped (grave or sacrificial) monuments. However, all known cist stones have been discovered in secondary contexts (Stenkvist 2014). See IX.

The photo of the painted stone provided by Lindqvist (1941/42 I. fig. 44, dating to 1937) as well as a drawing by Olof Sörling from 1911, kept in ATA’s Run och bildstenssamling, possibly show the legs and feet of a man in the right half of the image field, and perhaps the head and further scattered parts of a second human figure in the left half. A small box-like square appears to be placed on the bottom line of the field, approimately. in its middle. However, this interpretation is uncertain. It cannot be ruled out that these lines represent the remains of a geometrical pattern instead, similar to the border decoration. Another drawing by Sörling, which was published in Fornvännen 1906, fig. 7, does not consider these carvings at all but shows an empty field. Photos of the unpainted stone (1933) and Sörling’s drawings are kept in ATA’s as well.

They are the only cist stones that Lindqvist assigned to ʻAbschnittʼ B. However, already in “Gotlands Bildsteine” he remarked that their original function as parts of a cist-shaped (sacrificial) monument, which consists of four slabs, remains uncertain (ibid.). In his 1964 (p. 42) study about “Forngutniska Altaren” Lindqvist does not regard Halla Broa V–VI as ʻcist stonesʼ in the narrow sense anymore, preferring the term “slabs with cist-stone-outline”. Instead, he believes that they were grave markers that were placed at the head and the foot end of a grave, with their roots forming an underground stone cist (1964, p. 42).

The farm belongs to the community of Högbro. Since time immemorial, two important country roads, the road Halla-Viklau and the road Roma-Sjonhem (ʻVisbyvägenʼ) intersect here, where a rise consisting of gravel (the ʻhigh bridgeʼ = Högbro) clearly emerges out of the terrain, leading across the great bog system Romamyr-Stormyr. Both roads in turn are intersected by the railway line Roma-Etelhem. The railway intersects both roads a few hundred metres to the west and southwest of the crossing. During the 19th century, the Högbro elevation was severely diminished and large parts of the Broa cemetery were destroyed by clearing and cultivation, gravel mining, house building, railway and road construction, as well as deliberate grave robbing. Many finds from Broa were sold on the antiquities market during this time, with many acquired by ATA. Unfortunately, the large and highly important cemetery of Högbro-Broa is still not published adequately; its present documentation is incomplete and confusing. The best overview about the history and state of research is given by Lena Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, pp. 621–623; IV:1, pp. 324–347). \n\nThe first professional and large-scale excavation took place in 1899, conducted by Hans Hansson, who unearthed 14 graves in a small area next to the intersection, just south of the road Roma-Sjonhem and east of the road to Viklau. One further large-scale excavation was carried out in 1981–82 by Ann-Marie Pettersson, who investigated 120 graves (9 inhumation, 102 cremation, 9 without bones) in a small area (circa 700 m2) about 50 m north of the road Roma–Sjonhem and about 40 m east of the road to Halla (Broe 1:71; see the report compiled by Daniel Langhammer from 2012, RAGU dnr 13/82, 789/84). Apart from that, several minor and poorly documented investigations took place, in the beginning of the 20th century and. in particular, during the 1930s and the early 1940s. \n\nTwo large areas are registered by ATA, a burial ground north of the road Roma-Sjonhem (ATA Halla 46:1) and a burial ground south of the road (ATA Halla 48:1). The first one (46:1) covers an area of circa 120 x 110 m (E–W) and contains 66 circular stone settings and 120 investigated flat graves. The other one (48:1) is about 300 x 120 m (N–S) and features 202 circular stone settings. Several other registered monuments, about 15 stone settings, 2 stone kists and 1 gravklot (large spherical stone) seem to belong to the Broa grave field as well (ATA Halla 1:1, 1:2, 74:1, 78:1, 79:1; Roma 31:1, 31:2, 32:1). Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, p. 622) estimates the number of investigated graves alone at about 300 to 400. The actual size and extent of the cemetery, however, remains uncertain. \n\nThe oldest investigated burials can be dated to the Roman Iron Age, with some unexcavated stone settings typical of the Pre-Roman Iron Age. Most of the graves, however, date to the Migration, Vendel and Viking Periods. First and foremost, the grave field is well-known and frequently cited for some particularly important finds such as the decorated horse harness from the equestrian burial discovered in 1899, after which the Broa Style is named (Salin 1922; Thunmark-Nylén 1992; 1995–2006 IV:1, pp. 325–326), the lyre bridge of amber from the same grave (Reimers 1980), and many remarkable finds of glass vessels from all periods (Nylén 1969). Furthermore, several elite warrior graves contain fragments of ring-swords as well as a Vendel helmet (Nerman 1969–1975 I:1, p. 29; II, fig. 601). \n\nThe exact location of the find spots of the picture stones is difficult to determine in most cases, and their contexts and relation to the known parts of the cemetery remain unclear. Most of them originate from the railway line and the area west of it (called ʻBrandenʼ) and the rest from the area east of the road to Halla, between the road and the border to Roma (ʻKlosterängenʼ). Lindqvist (1941/42 II, fig. 378) provides a map, which was primarily composed at the National Heritage Board (RAÄ) based on the information kept in ATA. It identifies the location of the find places of the stones as carefully as they could be determined at Lindqvist’s time. \n\n“Found by the butcher Petterson during construction of his new house on the so-called ʻBrandenʼ, together with [Halla Broa] VII and VIII as well as 24 limestone balls [gravklot] (GF 1679–1702) and several other antiquities (GF 1704–1710)” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 62). The find spot is situated, according to the map provided by Lindqvist (1941/42 I, fig. 378), west of the road to Viklau, south of the railway line, in an area belonging to the farmstead Möllbos gård (not Broa/Broe). Information about the find year is not available.

The ship appears to have had rounded stems; between the railing and the sail’s straight lower edge, there probably are crewmen and sheet ropes that split running upwards. Below the ship, there either is a row of triangles or waves that possibly break to the right, as well as a narrow horizontal border with a simplified twisted cord pattern at the very bottom.” \n\nLindqvist’s painted version of the carvings does not trace the horseman himself in any detail but only an undefined field above the horse and a horizontal part of the spear behind the supposed rider. A drawing by Olof Sörling from 1918 instead depicts the horseman in much more detail, including his eye, nose, and beard (ATA Run- och bildstenssamling). However, Lindqvist’s interpretation of the ship is much more detailed, while Sörling only considered the rhombic pattern of the sail and some very rudimentary remains of the mast and rigging. In Sörling’s drawing, the waves beneath the vessel are clearly described as triangles. Lindqvist traced some remains of the interlace pattern inside the stone’s outline border, while Sörling only drew certain parts of the border’s inner frame.

Current research, however, tends to date them roughly to between the 8th century (or rather around AD 800) and the 10th century. Lisbeth Imer (2004, p. 104) dates Halla Boa IX to AD 750–900 (group 1C). According to Martin Rundkvist’s (2012) typology, the stone’s shape represents Type dwarf4, which occurs in his periods 4 (Late Vendel Period), 5 (Early Viking Period), and 6 (Middle Viking Period). As the ship depiction, in particular the stems, the rigging and the crew, is hardly discernable in detail, it cannot be included into typological considerations. \n\nThe stone’s decoration has some notable features. Triangular waves are depicted on a relatively small group of Type C/D stones, for instance GP 95 Garda kyrka 7, GP 170 Halla kyrka 5, GP 212 Klinte Klintebys, GP 572 Eksta kyrka, GP 563 Väte kyrka 2, and GP 280 När Smiss I. The simplified twisted cord pattern on the horizontal border beneath the waves is particularly remarkable. The pattern is typical for Type B picture stones and occurs rarely on late type monuments. A decorated border just above the root is also quite unusual. The only parallel is GP 150 Halla Broa XVI, which is comparable to Halla Broa IX in many respects.

The farm belongs to the community of Högbro. Since time immemorial, two important country roads, the road Halla–Viklau and the road Roma-Sjonhem (ʻVisbyvägenʼ) intersect here, where a rise consisting of gravel (the ʻhigh bridgeʼ = Högbro) clearly emerges out of the terrain, leading across the great bog system Romamyr-Stormyr. Both roads in turn are intersected by the railway line Roma-Etelhem. The railway intersects both roads a few hundred metres to the west and southwest of the crossing. During the 19th century, the Högbro elevation was severely diminished and large parts of the Broa cemetery were destroyed by clearing and cultivation, gravel mining, house building, railway and road construction, as well as deliberate grave robbing. Many finds from Broa were sold on the antiquities market during this time, with many acquired by ATA. Unfortunately, the large and highly important cemetery of Högbro-Broa is still not published adequately; its present documentation is incomplete and confusing. The best overview about the history and state of research is given by Lena Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, pp. 621–623; IV:1, pp. 324–347). \n\nThe first professional and large-scale excavation took place in 1899, conducted by Hans Hansson, who unearthed 14 graves in a small area right next to the intersection, just south of the road Roma-Sjonhem and east of the road to Viklau. One further large-scale excavation was carried out in 1981–82 by Ann-Marie Pettersson, investigating 120 graves (9 inhumation, 102 cremation, 9 without bones) in a small area (circa 700 m2) about 50 m north of the road Roma–Sjonhem and about 40 m east of the road to Halla (Broe 1:71; see the report compiled by Daniel Langhammer from 2012, RAGU dnr 13/82, 789/84). Apart from that, several minor and poorly documented investigations took place, in the beginning of the 20th century and, in particular, during the 1930s and the early 1940s. \n\nTwo large areas are registered by ATA, a burial ground north of the road Roma–Sjonhem (ATA Halla 46:1) and a burial ground south of the road (ATA Halla 48:1). The first one (46:1) covers an area of circa 120 x 110 m (E–W) and contains 66 circular stone settings and 120 investigated flat graves. The other one (48:1) is about 300 x 120 m (N–S) and features 202 circular stone settings. Several other registered monuments, about 15 stone settings, 2 stone kists and 1 gravklot (large spherical stone) seem to belong to the Broa grave field as well (ATA Halla 1:1, 1:2, 74:1, 78:1, 79:1; Roma 31:1, 31:2, 32:1). Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, p. 622) estimates the number of investigated graves alone at about 300 to 400. The actual size and extent of the cemetery, however, remains uncertain. \n\nThe oldest investigated burials can be dated to the Roman Iron Age, with some unexcavated stone settings typical of the Pre-Roman Iron Age. Most of the graves, however, date to the Migration, Vendel and Viking Periods. First and foremost, the grave field is well-known and frequently cited for some particularly important finds such as the decorated horse harness from the equestrian burial discovered in 1899, after which the Broa Style is named (Salin 1922; Thunmark-Nylén 1992; 1995–2006 IV:1, pp. 325–326), the lyre bridge of amber from the same grave (Reimers 1980), and many remarkable finds of glass vessels from all periods (Nylén 1969). Furthermore, there are several elite warrior graves containing fragments of ring-swords as well as a Vendel helmet (Nerman 1969–1975 I:1, p. 29; II, fig. 601). \n\nThe exact location of the find spots of the picture stones is difficult to determine in most cases, and their contexts and relation to the known parts of the cemetery remain unclear. Most of them originate from the railway line and the area west of it (called ʻBrandenʼ) and the rest from the area east of the road to Halla, between the road and the border to Roma (ʻKlosterängenʼ). Lindqvist (1941/42 II, fig. 378) provides a map, which was primarily composed at the National Heritage Board (RAÄ) based on the information kept in ATA. It identifies the location of the find places of the stones as carefully as they could be determined at Lindqvist’s time. \n\nAccording to a report letter from 1917-07-17 kept in ATA (Go Halla sn M–Ö, dnr 709-1917; cf. Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 65), Wennersten states that the picture stone Halla Broa XVI was “found on a newly built-on property to the right of the railway tracks, when travelling south from the train station Roma, just next to the level crossing in the triangle formed by the country road from Roma, the road to Viklau, and Gotlands railway line. […] [It] came to light two years ago when some workers, who had been commissioned by Hans Hansson to clear a burial mound from its grass cover until he would be back shortly afterwards, in doing so uncovered the stone. The picture stone lay there between other stone pieces; when I was there, it had lain with the obverse upwards in the open air for two years.” " } ], "ai2:measurementsMaterialAndCondition": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 283, "property_label": "Measurements, Material and Condition", "is_public": true, "@value": "The limestone slab represents the entire body and root of a small mushroom-shaped picture stone, which is now missing its head.

In the panel above a horizontal bar at the neck, the legs of a running horse can be seen, which indicates that the stone’s head was filled with the image of horse and rider. Just below the horizontal bar, three persons can be perceived in a low panel, of whom the middle one appears to be shown in a sitting position […]. Below this, there is a ship with rounded, towering stems and rectangular sail with rhombic pattern on a mast, on which probably are attached one stay from the left (prow?) and two from the right. A rudder may have been near the indistinct stem on the right. Above the railing, the torsos of six crewmen, all facing left, jut out; they presumably are behind a row of shields attached to the railing. Below the ship, a row of waves is depicted, the crests of which are breaking to the left, and a final horizontal border.” \n\nIn Olof Sörling’s drawing of the stone dating to 1918 (ibid. fig. 394), the horizontal border below the waves represents a simplified twisted cord pattern, which cannot be identified on Lindqvist’s photo of the painted surface (ibid. fig. 395). Another notable difference between both pictures is the left stem of the ship, which in Sörling’s opinion seems to end in an animal head with open jaws. Sörling and Lindqvist basically agree about the three figures in the image panel above the ship’s sail. The man to the left (see also Oehrl 2019a, pls. 57e–h) is wearing a sword scabbard and stretching out his hand towards the middle figure, which could represent a human. The human figure to the right, whose gender remains unclear, lifts up its hand, holding up an indefinable object, probably a drinking vessel, less probably a weapon. Either the figure is sitting on a chair or wearing long garments.

The farm belongs to the community of Högbro. Since time immemorial, two important country roads, the road Halla-Viklau and the road Roma-Sjonhem (ʻVisbyvägenʼ) intersect here, where a rise consisting of gravel (the ʻhigh bridgeʼ = Högbro) clearly emerges out of the terrain, leading across the great bog system Romamyr-Stormyr. Both roads in turn are intersected by the railway line Roma-Etelhem. The railway intersects both roads a few hundred metres to the west and southwest of the crossing. During the 19th century, the Högbro elevation was severely diminished and large parts of the Broa necropolis were destroyed by clearing and cultivation, gravel mining, house building, railway and road construction, as well as deliberate grave robbing. Many finds from Broa were sold on the antiquities market during this time, with many acquired by ATA. Unfortunately, the large and highly important cemetery of Högbro-Broa is still not published adequately; its present documentation is incomplete and confusing. The best overview about the history and state of research is given by Lena Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, pp. 621–623; IV:1, pp. 324–347). \n\nThe first professional and large-scale excavation took place in 1899, conducted by Hans Hansson, who unearthed 14 graves in a small area right next to the intersection, just south of the road Roma-Sjonhem and east of the road to Viklau. One further large-scale excavation was carried out in 1981–82 by Ann-Marie Pettersson, who investigated 120 graves (9 inhumation, 102 cremation, 9 without bones) in a small area (circa 700 m2) about 50 m north of the road Roma-Sjonhem and about 40 m east of the road to Halla (Broe 1:71; see the report compiled by Daniel Langhammer from 2012, RAGU dnr 13/82, 789/84). Apart from that, several minor and poorly documented investigations took place, in the beginning of the 20th century, in particular. during the 1930s and the early 1940s. \n\nTwo large areas are registered by ATA, a burial ground north of the road Roma-Sjonhem (ATA Halla 46:1) and a burial ground south of the road (ATA Halla 48:1). The first one (46:1) covers an area of circa 120 x 110 m (E–W) and contains 66 circular stone settings and 120 investigated flat graves. The other one (48:1) is about 300 x 120 m (N–S) and features 202 circular stone settings. Several other registered monuments, about 15 stone settings, 2 stone kists and 1 gravklot (large spherical stone) seem to belong to the Broa grave field as well (ATA Halla 1:1, 1:2, 74:1, 78:1, 79:1; Roma 31:1, 31:2, 32:1). Thunmark-Nylén (1995–2006 III:2, p. 622) estimates the number of investigated graves alone at about 300 to 400. The actual size and extent of the cemetery, however, remains still uncertain. \n\nThe oldest investigated burials can be dated to the Roman Iron Age, with some unexcavated stone settings typical for the Pre-Roman Iron Age. Most of the graves, however, date to the Migration, Vendel and Viking Periods. First and foremost, the grave field is well-known and frequently cited for some particularly important finds such as the decorated horse harness from the equestrian burial discovered in 1899, after which the Broa Style is named (Salin 1922; Thunmark-Nylén 1992; 1995–2006 IV:1, pp. 325–326), the lyre bridge of amber from the same grave (Reimers 1980), and many remarkable finds of glass vessels from all periods (Nylén 1969). Furthermore, there are several elite warrior graves containing fragments of ring-swords as well as a Vendel helmet (Nerman 1969–1975 I:1, p. 29; II, fig. 601). \n\nThe exact location of the find spots of the picture stones is difficult to determine in most cases, and their contexts and relation to the known parts of the cemetery remain unclear. Most of them originate from the railway line and the area west of it (called ʻBrandenʼ) and the rest from the area east of the road to Halla, between the road and the border to Roma (ʻKlosterängenʼ). Lindqvist (1941/42 II, fig. 378) provides a map, which was primarily composed at the National Heritage Board (RAÄ) based on the information kept in ATA. It identifies the location of the find places of the stones as carefully as they could be determined at Lindqvist’s time. \n\nThe picture stone Halla Broa IV was found in 1879 during the construction of the railway line (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 61). The exact find place and context, however, cannot be determined." } ], "ai2:measurementsMaterialAndCondition": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 283, "property_label": "Measurements, Material and Condition", "is_public": true, "@value": "“Limestone slab, up to 12 cm thick.

The images in the field appear to have been sketched in fine lines and drawn by means of a pointed instrument; after this, the work was completed by chiselling out the background field. The field is divided into two panels by a horizontal bar at the level of the neck. The horizontal bar at the same time serves as the yardarm of the sail of the watercraft filling the lower panel. On this bar, one foot of a horse is resting, on which sits a horseman with loose trousers gathered at the knee and a sword scabbard (attached to the belt?)” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 61). The very fine lines, which appear to be drawn with a pointed instrument are particularly visible in the details of the horseman’s head, his sword and trousers, but also in parts of the ship, in particular, the shields with bosses and the heads and faces of the crewmen. Those finely carved lines possibly indicate a kind of preliminary sketch (cf. ibid. I, pp. 42–43; repeatedly Hauck, in particular, 1957b; Eshleman 2000; Oehrl 2019a, pp. 67–68 and passim [regarding Hauck’s research see 68–86, 169–172, 286–287, and passim]). The best examples for such preliminary carvings represent the Type C stones GP 161 Halla Broa III, GP 390 Stenkyrka Lillbjärs III and GP 258 Lärbro Tängelgårda I. \n\nThe figure in the left half of the head field can be interpreted in different ways, but Lindqvist’s description of the carvings is particularly detailed (1941/42 II, p. 61): “In front of the horseman, on the same ʻground lineʼ, a person is standing, the details of which have been lost due to flaking. The interpretation of this person was a problem that GG [Gabriel Gustafson], FN [Fredrik Nordin], and OS [Olof Sörling] frequently debated, but never finally solved. Alternative no. 1 [ibid. II, fig. 381] includes: a man with knee-length garb, holding a spear slightly tilted forwards, towards the horseman; the slightly crooked spearhead is at a level with the horse’s ear. Alternative no. 2 [ibid. II, fig. 382, 384], however, put forward a woman with a floor-length dress (at the front of which there is a strip of constant width that corresponds to the front lower leg in alternative no. 1); her head is looking rather masculine and does not quite reach the same level as the horse’s mouth. Above the woman, there is a bird (the head and long neck of which, pointed diagonally upwards, corresponds to the upper part of the spear in alternative no. 1) that appears to be flying towards the horseman. Both wings of this presumed bird are visible and executed in a remarkably realistic way; the feathers of the wings would be implied by short, chiselled lines, in the same manner that commonly was used for the chiselled areas of the background field. Lastly, alternative no. 3 [ibid. I, fig. 116], which SL [Sune Lindqvist] considers the most likely, shows a woman in a full-length dress (possibly with a strip of constant width along the dress’s rear contours that corresponds to the rear lower leg in alternative no. 1) as in alternative no. 2, but of much greater body height; the torso is inclined backwards, of course, because the woman is presenting the horseman with a drinking horn, its almost horizontal mouth facing him (in alternative 1, this is the spearhead, in alternative 2, the bird’s head). The top of the woman’s head is at the same level as the horse’s eye” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 61). \n\nThere are even more possible interpretations documented – a photo of the painted stone depicting the legs of a man without spear (Oehrl 2019a, pl. 30f), a drawing with a very rudimentary version of the man with spear (ATA, unpublished), and a drawing with another version of the woman with a drinking horn, featuring a smaller body size and more detailed facial characteristics (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, fig. 383). All mentioned interpretations are kept in ATA (Run- och bildstenssamling). Oehrl (2019a, pp. 65–66, 89, pl. 54a–b) considers the image on the head field of Halla Broa IV one of the best examples of the difficulty of picture stone documentation, which he regards as the major problem of picture stone research in general. His investigation based on digital imaging applications, however, did not lead to a final assessment. Nevertheless, in Oehrl’s view, a woman with a drinking horn is the most plausible interpretation, although she is probably smaller and less massive, as she appears on the photo provided by Lindqvist. \n\nThe ship in the lower part of the stone is described by Lindqvist, as follows: “The lower half of the field is occupied – as mentioned above – by a watercraft. Above the horizontal bar – the sail’s yardarm –, the masthead can be seen between the horse’s forelegs in the panel just described; on both sides of the masthead, there are the upper ends of the stays running down in both directions. The sail is enclosed on both the left and right in the same rectilinear way as at the top by the yardarm, while downwards, it has a number of pointed corners continuing the rhombic pattern that had been produced by wide chiselled grooves. The vessel’s hull has towering stems, the rudder is on the starboard side, and ten shields are visible along the railing. The shields’ contours are drawn fairly competently, but hardly with a compass; the rims of the shield bosses are drawn, as well. Above the shields raise the heads of six, probably originally seven, crewmen. They wear round head coverings. Four corners, which probably each terminate in a sheet rope, constitute the sail’s lower edge. The mast is massive towards the bottom and has a stay running to it from the inner base of the stem in the bow as well as several of them from the stern” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 61).

Both motifs, the horseman (welcomed by a woman with a drinking horn) and the ship, are commonly regarded as depicting the deceased’s journey and arrival in the world of the dead. Gabriel Gustafson’s interpretation of the woman in the head field of Halla Broa IV, featuring a long-necked bird above the woman’s head (see VI, alternative no. 2), is particularly tempting since Oehrl was able to prove in his studies that long-necked water birds played an important role in the iconography of the late-type picture stones, acting as companions of the women who welcome the deceased in the world of the dead. Those ʻornithomorphic psychopompoiʼ can be seen on the picture stones GP 91 Fröjel Bottarve, GP 3 Alskog kyrka, GP 120 Grötlingbo Barshaldershed 6, and GP 341 Sanda kyrka I.

late-type ʻdwarf stoneʼ, belonging to ʻAbschnittʼ C according to Lindqvist, who dates those stones to the time around AD 700. Current research, however, tends to date them roughly to between the 8th century (or rather around AD 800) and the 10th century. Lisbeth Imer (2004, p. 104) dates the stone to the 9th century. According to Martin Rundkvist’s (2012) typology, the stone’s shape represents Type dwarf4, which occurs in his periods 4 (Late Vendel Period), 5 (Early Viking Period), and 6 (Middle Viking Period). According to Varenius’ ship typology (1992, pp. 69–74 and appendix 2), the rigging of the ship depiction belongs to his group III (segelskepp med skot i hanfot), which he dates to the 9th or 10th centuries. Lindqvist (1941/42 I, p. 71) assigns the vessel to his Hunningetypus, which occurs frequently on Type C picture stones. \n\nThe design of the sail, with small rectangles at the intersections of the diagonal lines (see VI), is similar to the Type D stones GP 5 Alskog Tjängvide I and GP 21 Ardre kyrka VIII or the Type C stones GP 160 Halla Broa III and GP 90 Fröjel kyrka.

From there, the stone [no. I] was transferred to the park in Klintebys, where it still stood in July 1941”, while [stone no. II] “[…] was transported to the outer edge of Klinteberget, just northeast of the church, where it remains to this day” (ibid. 81). GP 211 Klinte Hunninge III “[…] was found at the edge of a small gravel pit just southwest of the estate of Arvid Lerberg to the north of the highway Klinte–Visby […] and was donated to [Gotlands Fornsal]” (ibid.). The find year is not given by Lindqvist. Regarding Klinte Hunninge IV (Klintebys), he notes that “[i]n 1934, this picture stone has been for an unknown number of years in the garden of Klintebys, where it leans against the wall of the local park. It appears natural to suppose that this stone came from Hunninge, also, but no details about its origins could be established” (ibid.). Therefore, Lindqvist calls the stone ʻKlinte sockenʼ (parish, Klinte Kirchspiel), while Jan Peder Lamm listed it as ʻKlinte Hunninge IVʼ. Later, the stone was re-erected, several meters in front of the wall, anchored in the ground with small stones and concrete. \n\nAccording to a report by Ture Carlsson and a regarding letter by David Rosvall to the National Antiquarian from 1930 (ATA dnr 4546-30, 4794-30), picture stone no. III was registered by Carlsson in the same year and taken from Lerbergʼs garden. Carlsson also notes that no. IV was said to have been discovered one year ago at the very same spot. He also mentions that in previous times two more stones (i.e., nos. I and II) had been found at approximately the same place. From there, as Rosvall assumes, they were transported to a field, afterwards re-used as bridge stones, and a lifetime later placed in Klintebys park. In the 1965 inventory about the monuments in Klinte parish (ATA), it is noted that the stones nos. I, II, and IV probably originated from land owned by Klintebys farm, which, however, was situated in the area of Hunninge gård (farm), where they were re-used as bridge stones over a ditch, before they were transferred to the park in Klintebys (“Sägas flyttats från Klintebys ägor å Hunninge, där de uppgivas ha legat som brostenar över diken”). In the 1927 inventory of monuments in Klinte parish (Förteckning över Klinte sockens fasta fornlämningar) kept in ATA, I and II are mentioned as still being situated in Klintebys park. \n\nConsequently, the object biography of the four stones is confusing and their original find spots are impossible to determine. Stone no. I was transferred to Gotlands Museum after the publication of Lindqvistʼa book, no. II is still standing on Klinteberget, no. III is kept in the museumʼs storage in Visborg, and no. IV is still standing in Klintebys park.

In the horse in the top panel, thin lines can be made out defining the horse’s right leg. The border is filled with a simplified ‘twisted-cord’ pattern. The top panel shows a horseman supporting himself with one hand on the horse’s croup and carrying a hunting bird on the elbow of the same arm; in the other hand, he holds the reins. Above the horseman, a dog and a bird(?) can be seen, in front of him a woman facing him and holding a horn in her hand. The next panel shows a ship with rounded stem featuring a small spiral disc at its terminal, as well as a sail with a pattern of rhombi, the middle fields of which are carved into the stone. In the ship, there probably is a row of crewmen facing right; below the ship, two horses (which probably carried riders, but their figures are very hard to recognise). Behind the right horse possibly a walking person is depicted. At the very bottom, one perceives a row of chiselled triangles pointing downwards.” \n\nThe horseman is hardly “carrying a hunting bird on the elbow”, as Lindqvist suggests, but rather on his fist, as it is usual in falconry. In one of his hands the depicted horseman is holding the reins; on the other hand, stretched out to the left, the raptor is sitting. A vertical stripe connects the man’s outstretched arm, which is holding the bird, with the horse’s back. The meaning of this detail is uncertain, but it could represent the straps of leather on the raptor’s legs, used by falconers to tether the bird (ʻjessesʼ, German Geschüh). Otherwise, it could be interpreted as an ʻeagle crutchʼ, a device used by, for instance, Kyrgyz falconers for supporting their arm while holding their heavy hunting eagle. \n\nHowever, as noted above, the carvings are in very bad condition and it is difficult to verify the images and details described by Lindqvist and depicted in the photo of the painted stone which is published in his book (ibid. II, fig. 134, cf. ATA 1719:17 [taken by H. Faith-Ell 1933]). Other pictures, including those before the stone was painted by Lindqvist, are not available in the archives. Oehrl (2019a, pp. 179–180), who re-analysed the stone in 2013 by means of 3D digitisation and Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI), concludes that only the rough contours of the main motifs can be brought to light, while most of it remains indiscernible to the naked eye. \n\nRegarding the possible bird (cf. Oehrl 2010a, pp. 24–25, pl. VI:15) that appears to fly ahead of the horse, Oehrl (2019a, pls. 184a–c, 185a–c), based on the results of his RTI documentation, suggests a new interpretation, considering a four-legged prey animal, presumably a fox.

Usually, for good reasons, the motif of the equestrian and the woman with the drinking horn is interpreted as the arrival of a fallen warrior in Valhǫll, who is welcomed by a valkyrie. \n\nThe horseman with the raptor on Klinte Hunninge IV (Klintebys) is regarded as the earliest known Scandinavian monument that clearly depicts a falconry scene. According to the Barbarian Law Codes, the leges barbarorum, hunting with raptors was well established among the Continental tribes from the 5th or 6th century onwards (Lindner 1973; Grimm/Oehrl 2017; Dusil 2018). Bones of birds of prey in richly furnished graves of the 6th–10th centuries appear to prove that falconry was also already practised in East Middle Sweden from an early age (Vretemark 2018). Written allusions to falconry in Old Norse literature come to the fore in the 10th or 11th century at the earliest (Hofmann 1957/58; Carstens 2018). In addition, pictorial depictions should be considered important source material, indicating a certain knowledge of this form of hunting among the early Scandinavians (Åkerström-Hougen 1981; Oehrl 2012c; 2013a; 2014a; 2018; 2020d; Grimm/Oehrl 2017). \n\nBird brooches and raptor-shaped fittings from the Vendel Period (Atterman 1934) are occasionally regarded as further evidence for early Scandinavian falconry. Actually, some of these items represent raptors holding and devouring their prey, like the 7th century gilded saddle fittings from a horseman’s grave at Vallstena in Gotland (Nerman 1969/75, no. 1260–1263) and the gold and garnet cloisonné mounts of the purse lid from the Anglo-Saxon princely ship burial at Sutton Hoo (Suffolk, East Anglia), also from the 7th century, depicting a raptor striking a duck (Hicks 1986, 162–165; Adams 2015, 43–48). However, images like this – without clearly assignable human participants, horses and hunting dogs – cannot with certainty be regarded as depictions of falconry. As some of them were used as shield decorations or saddle fittings, it could be reasonable to interpret them as warrior emblems, probably in the context of the ʻbeasts of battleʼ tradition (see GP 253 Lärbro St. Hammars I, and GP 258 Lärbro Tängelgårda I), like the bird brooch from Lisbjerg in Jutland from the 6th/7th century AD depicting a similar raptor that is striking a human figure (Ørsnes 1966, no. 159a; Kjærum/Olsen 1990, p. 162 no. 63; Oehrl 2020d, pp. 455–457), or just as symbols of power or mythological motifs (Dickinson 2005, pp. 152–160; 2011, pp. 644–650; Hauck 1980a, pp. 274–286; 1982c, pp. 321–328; Oehrl in print b). Even the raptors on Migration Period gold bracteates have been interpreted in the context of falconry, which is by no means plausible (Pesch 2018). \n\nAnother undoubted depiction of falconry can be seen on the Viking Age rune stone from Alstad in Oppland, Norway, from between AD 1000 and 1030 (N 61–62; Christiansen 1997). A horseman with a bird of prey on his fist, together with two hounds, and a second big raptor on the top of the stone can be seen. A strange, long object in the hand of a second horseman at the bottom, which is club-like and broadens towards its top, could be regarded as a perch for the raptor. A T-shaped perch is depicted on a bronze Viking ship from Grimsta near Stockholm, Sweden, from the 11th century (Biörnstad 1958). The depicted horseman holds his bird on his left fist and the perch in his right hand. There is also a group of 11th century Swedish rune stones. The stone from Vidbo kyrka (Uppland, U 375), for instance, depicts a horseman above whom a stylized bird seems to be flying. On the rune stone from Hanunda (Uppland, U 599), a horseman lifts up his hand and above him a big raptor is situated on the runic border. Possibly, this rider is a falconer who is calling his bird back to his fist. \n\nA matter of particular interest is the 11th century rune stone from Böksta/Balingsta (Uppland, U 855). It depicts a mounted hunter with a spear, pursuing a red deer stag with his hounds. A stylized raptor is standing on the stag’s antlers attacking its head with its beak. This depiction appears to represent a special kind of falconry, i.e., hunting big game animals with raptors, which was widespread in the Arab world, but almost unknown in medieval Europe. On the basis of this rune stone, it has been considered that Viking falconers were influenced by Eastern hunting traditions (Oehrl 2013a; 2014a). Apart from this, early images of falconry can also be observed on carved stones on the British Isles – on the prominent 8th century Anglo-Saxon stone cross from Bewcastle in Cumberland, on 8th/9th century Pictish carved stones from Scotland, as well as on the Viking or ʻAnglo-Scandinavianʼ stone cross from Sockburn in Durham, dating to the first half of the 10th century (Cramp 1984, 136; Bailey/Cramp 1988, pp. 69–70; Carrington 1996; Oehrl 2018, pp. 841–843, figs. 1–5, 10). \n\nAs a result, the horseman from Klintebys is not the only Viking Age depiction of a falconer but must be regarded the earliest pictorial representation of a falconer in Scandinavian art. Remarkably, the fallen hero arriving at the gates of the warrior’s paradise is glorified as a falconer – on horseback, with a hunting hound and a raptor on his fist. \n\nWhether there were actually human riders on the backs of the two facing horses in the lower part of the stone remains unclear. If this was not the case, the depiction can be associated with similar images of facing horses on Type A and Type B picture stones. The topic of horse fights (called hestavíg in Old Norse literature) and horse sacrifice in the iconography of the (early) Gotland picture stones has often been discussed, see in particular GP 198 Hellvi Ire 7 and the following literature: Gjessing 1943, pp. 29–30; Lindqvst 1955, pp. 41–43; Ellmers 1970, pp. 243–245; Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 26; Althaus 1993, pp. 87–89, 192–193; Lamm 1999; Beck 2003, pp. 96–97; Guber 2011, pp. 55–56; Pesch 2015a, p. 357; Oehrl 2019a, pp. 62–63.

Lindqvist regards the stone as an ʻAbschnittʼ C monument, dating to around AD 700. Those late-type picture stones (Type C/D) can only be roughly dated to the period between the 8th century (or rather around AD 800) and circa 1000. Lindqvist (1941/42 I, p. 46) assigns the stone to his Klintegruppe, which consists of only a few monuments from the parish of Klinte and which he regards as the best representative of a kind of picture stones typical for the southern part of Gotland, called Der südgutnische Kreis. The most characteristic feature of those monuments is the placement of the ship motif directly below the head field with the horseman. \n\nAccording to Martin Rundkvist’s (2012) typology, the stone’s shape represents Type tall3, which occurs in his periods 5 (Early Viking Period), and 7 (Late Viking Period). Imer (2004, p. 104), however, dates monuments of this kind to the 9th or 10th century, while Varenius (1992, appendix 2), based on his analysis of the ship’s rigging (group II skepp med enkel rigg), dates it to the 7th–9th century.

The picture stone under discussion here was re-erected and stands in its core original stone setting close to the finding place.” Obviously, the monument once was standing next to a group of three grave mounds (rösen) and after its discovery has been re-erected on one of them.

The decoration, which is badly damaged due to weathering and very hard to discern, is executed with carved lines and faintly chiselled background fields.

V. Wennersten and sent to SHM. He found them, along with several other stone slabs, which cannot be identified with certainty as belonging to the group of picture stones, at the foot of a burial mound of approximately 15 m in diameter. The stones had formed a kerb. Some of them, among them Nos I and II, still stood in an upright position, while others, such as Nos III–V, appear to have fallen outwards, due to the pressure of the masses of earth from the mound. Not only this remarkable enclosure, but also large parts of the mound, however, had been severely damaged [and obviously robbed] in Antiquity. There was no possibility to determine the age of the site. About this, see Wennersten’s report in ATA” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 99). \n\nIn ATA, however, only a sketch of the find situation dating to 1911 and a letter from Wennersten as well as a letter from Otto von Friesen about a grave field at Tomase (both dating 1902) can be found (ATA, Go Lokrume sn K–O). The letters do not provide any more information about the picture stones and the grave mound. The 1911 drawing shows the position of the picture stones and other stone slabs, building a half circle which surrounds and edges the north-western part of the mound. Furthermore, the archive keeps photos of the stones in situ, taken by Otto von Friesen in 1902, showing them in a row with their upper edges standing out of the ground. One of the photos, however, depicts one of the picture stones being unearthed. These pictures are labelled as Lokrume ʻKroksʼ, which is the name of a neighbouring farm (ATA, Fasta fornlämningar Lokrume sn, Lokrume sn Kroks, foto 1838:33; 626:25–26). Photos of all stones were taken by Faith-Ell in 1933 (ATA, run- och bildstenssamlingen, foto 1718:4–8; cf. Lindqvist 1941/42 II, fig. 455–459). \n\nThe location of the grave mound remains unknown. In the letter by von Friesen, a grave field is described as being located east of Lokrume church. There are many grave mounds (rösen) and other stone settings registered in the Tomase area. One group of those stone settings and perhaps a grave field are situated between 500 and 800 m east of the church and between 100 and 500 m north of Tomase gård; a second group lies between 300 and 500 m south of the church. \n\nAccording to Lindqvist (1941/42 I, pp. 40, 47–48, 58–61; 1964), picture stones of the cist stone Type were originally used either pairwise representing grave markers or, as in the case of Tomase II–V, in a group of four that form cist-shaped (grave or sacrificial) monuments. However, all known cist stones have been discovered in secondary contexts (Stenkvist 2014).

Most of those stones represent late-type picture stones, belonging to ʻAbschnittʼ C/D or E according to Lindqvist. There is only a very small group of Type B cist stones known to date (see in particular Halla Broa V–VI). Rundkvist (2012, p. 154) labels the Tomase stone as Type B (AD 500–700) but Lindqvist as a Type C picture stone. Lindqvist dated his ʻAbschnittʼ C to the time around AD 700. Recent research, however, dates the stones of this type between the 8th and the 11th century. The stone from Tomase is quite small, only about 26 cm above ground, which seems to indicate a Type B monument. Simple interlace patterns like the one on the stone’s horizontal border frequently occur on Type C picture stones (e.g., GP 161 Halla Broa III). However, comparable patterns can be observed on Type B stones as well (e.g., GP 74 Endre skog, GP 368 Stenkyrka kyrka IX, GP 238 Lokrume Lauks). The best match, however, is represented by the horizontal border on the Type C cist stones GP 57–60 Buttle Änge III–VI.

In Hauck’s contribution to the typology of Gotland’s early picture stones, the Tofta stone is considered typical of group VI, the Toftatypus. In this small group Hauck subsumes small picture stones that show star and/or rosette motifs as their central motif (1983a, p. 545).

The investigation of the largely destroyed cemetery, directed by Greta Arwidsson, was carried out in 1948, 1949/1950, and 1955/1956. Overall, the area covers about 70 x 30 m and contains about 15 burial mounds and several stone settings. The stone was found in the undisturbed inhumation grave no. 16, which was dated to the early 11th century. The woman buried here had been laid to rest in a cist and equipped with the following grave-goods: an animal-head brooch dating to the early 10th century (an heirloom), three beads, a knife, two combs, two keys, a needle case with a needle, a jewellery chain, and some nails and iron rods. The picture stone fragment was used as part of a stone layer covering the cist (Rundkvist 2012, pp. 151–152). Within this stone packing, about ten smaller stone fragments were found that might have been part of the original monument as well. On inspection, however, no clear traces of work were found, and as their whereabouts today are unknown, this notion remains speculative. The discovery of the picture stone was published in 1962 by Sune Lindqvist in an article in “Gotländskt Arkiv”, which included a photograph in which the stone’s imagery was traced in paint (Lindqvist 1962, fig. 10; cf. Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 55). Lindqvist provided no further information.

The imagery, executed in bas-relief, is quite distinct, as outer contours of the figures are largely defined by clear and deep-cut lines. Moreover, the artist carved the background planes meticulously so that it appears as a rough, evenly grooved structure that is easily distinguishable from the raised fields (1 mm max.). There are virtually no indications of weathering on the even surface.

(For a larger reproduction of the same original photograph, see Oehrl 2019a, pl. 307a). Lindqvist’s description also is very brief: “Of the two warriors, who are observed in front of the mast, are seen their shoulders and arms. Each holds a sword in his right, a shot in the left hand. In front of them, a square ’open-work’ plate, whose meaning I don’t know” (Lindqvist 1962, p. 19). Above the two warriors, there is an elongated, shapeless area, which may be interpreted as rigging or ropes, but more likely it is a larger object that hovers over the crew. \n\nIn the narrow field to the right of the mast, another faint figure can be made out. A larger image of the picture stone fragment provided by Lamm and Nylén features only the two warriors on board the ship, not the unclear figures to either side of the pair (2003, p. 55). Drawing on RTI images and 3D models, Oehrl thoroughly examined the stone and compared its images with those indicated by Lindqvist’s colouring, yielding the following results (2019a, pp. 257–259; pls. 308a–314b, 315d). Mast, yardarm, and the sail with its rhombic pattern – with alternately raised and sunken fields – are carved most carefully and are easily recognisable. To a large degree, the warrior figures on board of the ship can also be verified, according to Oehrl. The shape above them, however, remains dubious. Judging from the published photographs of the fragment, it is possible that the shape represents the vague remains of the ship’s rigging leading down to the sheet ropes in the men’s hands. The entire section above the two crew members with their swords, however, is covered with a regular pattern of the parallel grooves produced by the mason’s tools that chiselled the sunken surface of the background (ibid. pls. 313c–314), which speaks against the presence of figures or motifs in relief here. Similarly, the ropes that the warriors would hold in their hands cannot be confirmed; instead, the right warrior appears to be equipped with two swords. \n\nOf particular interest is the field close to the right edge, to the right of the mast. In it, Oehrl was able to prove the presence of the figure of a woman, looking left, with clearly defined and pointed feet, a long dress, and an ample bust (ibid. pls. 310a–314b). The woman’s head is difficult to discern and has no indication of hair. Other elements under the figure indicated by Lindqvist’s picture cannot be verified, as that entire area is covered by chisel marks. The woman does not touch the ship but appears to hover over its deck or rails. \n\nThe rectangular object with vertical stripes at the ship’s bow can be confirmed, according to Oehrl, and identified as a stringed instrument, namely a lyre, as it also can be seen on the picture stone from GP 248 Lärbro Källstäde (more comprehensively, also regarding its symbolic meaning: Oehrl 2019a, pp. 259–262). Archaeological evidence for lyres of this sort is known from the 2nd to the 8th/9th centuries and has been found particularly in England, Germany, and the Netherlands (Bruce-Mitford 1983, pp. 611–727; Betz/Wanzeck 1999; Kolltveit 2000; Bischop 2002; Koch 2004). Most prominent are, for example, the complete instruments from the Alemannic row grave fields of Oberflacht (6th and first quarter of the 7th c.) (Paulsen 1992, pp. 147–155; figs. 126–127) and Trossingen (burial dated to AD 580) (Theune-Großkopf 2002; 2005; 2006; 2010), from a Frankish burial of high status underneath St. Severin in Cologne (early 8th c.) (Päffgen 1992 I, pp. 481–485; figs. 169–170; II, pp. 280–284; III, pl. 59:5), as well as the Anglo-Saxon royal burial at Sutton Hoo (7th c. [AD 624/625?]) (Bruce-Mitford 1970; 1983, pp. 611–727). There also are lyres or their components from the North (Bischop 2002): a bridge of a lyre was found at Birka (9th c.) (Salmen 1970, p. 8, fig. 1:3), a lyre yoke in Hedeby (11th c.) (Lawson 1984), and two fragments of bridges at Wurt Elisenhof near Tönning (8th c.) (Salmen 1970, pp. 7–8; fig. 1:4; pl. 3,1–2). From Gotland, two examples are known: an amber bridge from the ‘chief’s grave’ at Broa in Halla parish (8th c.) (Reimers 1980) and a bronze bridge from Gerete, Fardhem parish (Vedin 2007).

There may be literary and archaeological evidence indicating fighting (Gardeła 2018) and seafaring (Jesch 2001) women during the Viking Age, but the female figure of Boge Laxarve 2 stands out particularly from the other crew members: while the armed men are standing or sitting on the ship’s deck, the woman is hovering over the rails without touching the ship with her feet. This method of presentation appears to put her in the realm of the supernatural and is reminiscent of the divine ship guide with horned headgear on GP 339 Rute St. Valle 2 hovering behind the ship’s stem. This probably is the god Óðinn, who either is consecrating the ship’s crewmen to death and accompanying them to the realm of the dead or, as a “Sieghelfer” (ʻvictory helperʼ), rendering supernatural assistance in battle (Oehrl 2016b; 2017a; 2019a, pp. 240–242). \n\nAgainst this background, it is plausible to regard the woman hovering over the ship of Boge Laxarve 2 as a valkyrie, who, on behalf of the god Óðinn, chooses the slain and escorts the ship of the defeated and its crew to Valhǫll (Oehrl 2019a, p. 262). This role of the valkyries is suggested by their name (valkyrja ‘choosers of the fallen’ [valr ‘the fallen on the battlefield’, kjósa ‘choose, select’]) (recently and comprehensively: Zimmermann 2012; Egeler 2011). The role is well documented in skaldic and eddic poetry as well as in Snorri’s Gylfaginning (36, Faulkes 2005, p. 30) and mentioned, for example, in the Hákonarmál by the skald Eyvindr skáldaspillir as early as 960/961 (stanza 1, Finnur Jónsson 1912–1915 A I, p. 64; B I, 57; Whaley 2012, p. 174). Also in Darraðarljóð, probably composed soon after 1014 (or in the early 10th century? Poole 1991, pp. 120–125), the valkyries decide who is going to die in battle (Finnur Jónsson 1912–1915 A I, pp. 419–421; B I, pp. 389–391). \n\nIf in fact the woman on the picture stone depicts a valkyrie, she could also be understood as a supporter of the crew (Oehrl 2019a, p. 263), as the valkyries, just like Óðinn, can act as battle helpers (Price 2002, 346–350). Helgakviða Hiǫrvarðzsonar (HHv, prose after stanza 9), for example, explicitly mentions that the valkyrie Sváva frequently protected Helgi in battle (Neckel/Kuhn 1983, p. 143) Helgakviða Hundingsbana in fyrri (HH I, stanzas 54–55) tells the story of valkyries descending from the sky to protect Helgi and bring him victory (ibid. pp. 138–139). In Helgakviða Hundingsbana ǫnnor (HH II, stanzas 11–12), Helgi asks Sigrún how she could know details of his military exploits, and the valkyrie answers that she was not far away during battle (Varca ec fiarri, ibid. p. 152). Regarding the picture stone, stanza 30 of Helgakviða Hundingsbana in fyrri might be of particular interest, as here the valkyrie provides protection for Helgi’s ships and crew: Helgi’s fleet gets caught in a life-threatening thunderstorm, but thanks to supernatural help, the men survive. Sigrún, it is said, protected Helgi’s men and the ships ‘from above’ (ofan, ibid. p. 134). Accordingly, the woman above the ship from Boge Laxarve 2 might be interpreted as a valkyrie who is present during a sea battle to protect the ship’s crew, as described in the lays of Helgi of the Codex Regius. The date of the lays remains controversial and varies between the 11th century and about 1250 (von See et al. 2004). \n\nApart from the valkyries, other supernatural battle helpers can be considered for the interpretation of Boge Laxarve 2 (Oehrl 2019a, p. 264), such as the fylgjur. These spirit-like beings frequently appear both in the form of women and in combat contexts (Heide 2016). Also, the Norwegian local deity Þorgerðr Hǫlgabrúðr, who was venerated in the 10th century in Hálogaland and was the patron goddess of Hákon, earl of Lade (Storm 1885; Chadwick 1950; de Vries 1956–1957, pp. 340–342; Halvorsen 1976, Motz 1993; McKinnell 2002; Steinsland 2011, pp. 53–55), has some characteristics resembling those of valkyries, and in Jómsvíkinga saga, she appears on a warship (Blake 1964, p. 37). During a battle fought on board ships, she joins the Earl’s men, conjures a terrible storm, and from her fingers hurls deadly magic arrows against the enemy. The supernatural storm is directed against the hostile Jómsvikings and makes their projectiles turn back against themselves. Only those men who have the second sight (ófreskir menn) are able to see the apparition of the woman. Her intervention on the ship secures the Earl’s victory. It is quite possible that this motif traces back to old oral traditions (Halvorsen 1976, col. 383). Similar ideas and narratives could have been known on Gotland as well.

The way both the male crew members and the female figure are shown in profile, however, is reminiscent of stylistic characteristics of Lindqvist’s ʻAbschnittʼ D and his ʻTjängvide-Gruppe.ʼ Lindqvist dated the Type C stones to about 700 or the early 8th century, but he considered the small group of Type D stones as slightly later, from the second half of the 8th century. This view is now regarded as obsolete. According to Eshleman (1983), stones of Type C were strongly influenced by the art of the Carolingian Renaissance and therefore should instead be dated to the period between AD 790 and 840. Archaeological excavations at Type C picture stones still in situ suggest a date about the year 800. Some runic inscriptions on picture stones of Type C have been dated to between AD 850 and 900 (Snædal 2002, pp. 48–53, 63–64; Gustavson 2012, p. 112 with references), and the runes on GP 244 Lokrume kyrka [C] probably belong to the second half of the 10th century (Källström 2012, p. 127), while those on GP 5 Alskog Tjängvide I [D] are likely to date from the latter half of the 10th century or even circa 1000.

Stenen var återanvänd som en del av en gravanläggning, en kvinnograv som daterats till tidigt 1000-tal. Möjligen fanns det några fler små bildstensfragment i graven, men det kan numera inte påvisas. \n\nNuvarande förvaringsplats \nGotlands Museum, Magasin Visborg. \n\nBeskrivning \nFragmentet har troligen tillhört den nedre delen av en svampformad bildsten. Det nästan trekantiga fragmentet är max 0.52 m högt och max 0.54 m brett. Det finns brottkanter runt om hela fragmentet, den ursprungliga randkonturen är inte bevarad. \n\nPlanreliefen på den här stenen är jämförelsevis tydlig och välbevarad. Man kan se rester av ett typiskt stort skepp med rutigt segel. Två skäggiga krigare med svärd och sköld sitter ombord och en kvinna i klänning svävar ovanför däcket utan att beröra skeppet. I skeppets bog befinner sig antagligen en lyra, ett tidigmedeltida stränginstrument som är välkänt från arkeologiska fynd, särskilt från alemanniska, frankiska och anglosaxiska fyndplatser i Tyskland och England. Fragment av sådana musikinstrument har även hittats i det vikingatida Norden, till exempel i Birka, Hedeby och även på Gotland – Broa i Halla socken och Gerete i Fardhem socken. Ytterligare en lyra finns framställd på bildstenen GP 248 Lärbro Källstäde. \n\nDatering \n700-talet eller mellan omkring år 800 och 900-talet e.Kr. (vikingatid). \n\nTolkning \nEftersom kvinnan verkar sväva ovanför skeppet kan hon tolkas som en övernaturlig varelse. Kanske representerar hon en valkyria eller en gudinna som leder skeppets besättning till dödsriket eller stödjer och bistår dem i slaget. En liknande funktion har den svävande behornade mansfiguren på stenen GP 339 Rute St. Valle 2, som kan tolkas som guden Oden. \n\nSO" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 327, "property_label":

No. II is said to have been discovered in 1929 by farmer Harald Hansson lying close to the surface in the burial ground.

Lindqvist’s description corresponds to his picture of the painted stone from 1933 (ibid. figs. 106, 118): “The decoration was sketched out in lines and largely executed by the chiseling of the background fields. Apart from the base, the field is surrounded by an s-spun cord that forms a border without actually being a frame. A 2.5–3 cm wide band divides the field into two parts. The upper panel shows at its very top a motif reminiscent of a swastika, and below it, there are two figures facing each other – probably men – in different costumes. They appear to be shaking hands. In the lower panel, an indistinct figure can be seen at the top, and below, three men are shown of whom the two on the right are dressed in the same manner as the two persons in the upper panel – they, too, seem to be shaking hands. The man on the left holds up his hand in their direction. Even today, the festive meaning of these images without words seems clear to every observer.” (ibid. II, p. 110). \n\nConcerning the men’s costume, at least two of them seem to wear harem trousers (Toplak 2011, pp. 61–65) while the others are dressed in long robes that reach down to the ankles. From the outstretched arms of all men, long tips hang down that reach almost to the ground and look like hanging sleeves. Men with long robes or harem trousers and hanging tips of the type described occur frequently on Type C/D picture stones, for example on GP 244 Lokrume kyrka, GP 258 Lärbro Tängelgårda I, GP 252 Lärbro Tängelgårda IV, GP 532 Träkumla kyrka I, GP 280 När Smiss i, GP 397 Stenkyrka Smiss I. There is little justification for regarding such figures with long robes and hanging tips as women (Lindqvist 1941/1942 II, p. 96; 1964, p. 68) or androgynous figures (Göransson 1999, pp. 67–68; cf. Helmbrecht 2011, p. 239; 2012, p. 88), as they often have male characteristics (beard), and ceremonial long robes may well have been worn by men. In Old Norse, the term slœður or slœðor (fem. pl.) denotes a trailing dress or, as in the case of Egill Skalla-Grímsson, the long trailing garment of a man (Egils saga ch. 67 – Sigurður Nordal 1933, p. 213). Toplak (2011, p. 48; cf. Ewing 2007, p. 171) associates the ankle-length garments, gathered at the hip, as depicted on GP 258 Lärbro Tängelgårda I, with the Old Norse term kyrtill. \n\nHowever, there is disagreement about the meaning of the hanging tip. It is not very likely that these represent long hanging sleeves (as suggested by Holmqvist 1976, p. 564; Ewing 2007, pp. 91, 93, 115, 119; Toplak 2011, pp. 40, 48), as there is no archaeological evidence for those from the Viking Age and they are unlikely to have appeared before the courtly culture of the High Middle Ages. It is more probable to assume a cloak-tip hanging down from the outstretched arm (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, p. 77; Oehrl 2019a, p. 177). Such hanging tips of a cloak in connection with an ankle-length garment are frequently depicted in Carolingian and Ottonian art, such as in the depiction of King David in the Montpellier Psalter (Bibl. Montpellier Ms. 409; also called the Tassilopsalter – Dannheimer/Dopsch 1988, p. 351, fig. 240) or the coronation image of the Regensburg Sacramentary (Bayerische Staatsbibliothek München Clm 4456, fol. 11r – Weinfurter et al. 2002, pp. 17–20, 269–270, fig. 2), to name two relevant examples.

Depictions of ceremonial drinking, which also seems to include a kind of oath taking, can be seen on GP 252 Lärbro Tängelgårda IV and GP 532 Träkumla kyrka I, with the drinkers wearing the same ceremonial costumes with long robes and hanging cloaks that also characterise the men of Sandegårda II. Depictions of otherworldly drinking parties in Oðinn’s Valhǫll have also been considered, against the background of the importance of eschatological ideas in the iconography of the Gotlandic picture stones. For more details concerning these interpretations, see the relevant articles (and Oehrl 2019a, pp. 169–180). Alternatively, a duel could be depicted, similar to the image of När Smiss I, or a ritual clashing of weapons, as has been suggested for the swordsmen on GP 258 Lärbro Tängelgårda I and GP 252 Lärbro Tängelgårda IV (Schwab 1994, p. 508, fn. 63), although no weapons are clearly visible on the Sandegårda Stone. Besides the Smiss stone, duels are also depicted on GP 209 Klinte Hunninge I and GP 3 Alskog kyrka.

It includes more than 1000 visible stone settings (rösen and other circular or almost circular stone mounds), as well as a ship-shaped stone setting from the Bronze Age (5 x 2.25 m), and a monumental (17 m in diameter) grave mound called ʻÄuglehaugʼ (or ʻUgglehaugʼ), which probably dates to the Migration Period. An old path of about 550 m leads through the entire area in an east-west direction. Many of the graves were robbed; only a small number has been excavated, including about a dozen dating to the Viking Period. Remarkable features of the stone mounds are a surrounding dry-stone wall consisting of several layers of limestone slabs, as well as the frequent occurrence of grave orbs (large spherical stones) (gravklot), erected stone slabs, and picture stones in the immediate context of the (Vendel or Viking Period) graves (ibid. pp. 582–583). Lindqvist published nineteen picture stones from this grave field – GP 369–373, 377–381, 388–396, 429–431, 440 Stenkyrka Lillbjärs I–XIX. \n\n“In November 1908, O. V. Wennersten reported in a letter to the National Antiquarian that a local, Emil Svensson in Tune, had discovered three picture stones on the ground belonging to Lillbjärs and taken custody of them. […] On this occasion, the antiquarian Emil Eckhoff visited the find place during the following summer and sent to SHM the stones [Stenkyrka Lillbjärs I–VI] as well as three fragments of another slab, which, however, did not clearly represent a picture stone. He also collected numerous grave orbs (gravklot) […]. In 1911, [Fredrik Nordin] visited the site and was given more information by Svensson about the find place and the circumstances of the discovery of the stones […]. When [Fredrik Nordin] returned in 1913 to conduct excavations, Svensson in the meantime had moved away, and unfortunately, it turned out to be impossible to locate all the find places described by him” (ibid.). Nordin excavated a number of stone settings in 1913 as well as in the following summer and discovered eight more picture stones in situ (Stenkyrka Lillbjärs VII–XIV). Between 1910 and 1912, three more picture stones were reported to Gotlands Museum by Svensson and moved to Visby where they are still kept today (Stenkyrka Lillbjärs XV–XVIII). Stenkyrka Lillbjärs XIX was found later, in 1927. \n\nMost of the picture stones from Stenkyrka church presumably came from the Lillbjärs cemetery as well. Nevertheless, the stock of picture stones from this site can by no means have been recorded completely, and there is good reason to believe that this grave field in the future will provide even more discoveries (cf. Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 118). \n\nThe stones I–VI were discovered by the worker Emil Svensson in 1908. The picture stone Stenkyrka Lillbjärs II was found by Svensson in the centre of the grave field, on top of the northerly of the two stone mounds between which GP 388 Stenkyrka Lillbjärs I had come to light. It lay close to the north edge of the mound (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, pp. 118, 122). The picture stones I–VI (SHM 13742) were delivered to Statens Historiska Museum by antiquarian Emil Eckhoff in 1909 (Fornvännen 1909, pp. 253–354).

The earliest church at this place was a wooden building that was replaced by a stone structure in the first half of the 12th century. The foundations of the early church were discovered beneath the floor of the current church, built during the 13th century; further remains are preserved in the gable walls of the nave (on the building’s architectural history, see Roosval 1911, pp. 84–86; 1914, pp. 1–52, esp. 21–24; Lagerlöf/Svahnström 1991, pp. 239–243). In his book “Gotlands Bildsteine”, Sune Lindqvist (1941/42 II, pp. 115–118) lists nine picture stones from Stenkyrka church. By contrast, the list put together by Jan Peder Lamm in 2003 contains no fewer than 40 new discoveries (Lamm/Nylén 2003, nos. 238–276, 425, 426). The unusually large number of stones found not only in the church, but in the entire parish, is an indicator of the political and religious position that Stenkyrka probably already held even before the first church was built (see Roosval 1914, p. 5). Many of the new finds from the church, including Stenkyrka kyrka 11, were discovered during a large-scale restoration, which was carried out in 1954/55 according to plans by the architect Rolf Bergh. The restoration report which is kept at ATA (F1 Antikvarisk-topografiska dossierer, Go, Stenkyrka kyrka, 1955) does not contain information about the position in which the stone was encountered in the church wall, when it was built in, or what function it might have served. The 1954/55 finds are largely undocumented and unpublished. An exception is GP 428 Stenkyrka kyrka 46, which was used as an altar slab; it was discussed and published by Lindqvist in 1956.

The break line on the left side runs down vertically; at the lower edge, it is irregular. At the lower-right corner, the pointed edge of the characteristic, mushroom-shaped head is missing. The piece is made of limestone and has a maximum height of 0.77 m and a maximum width of 0.57 m. The carved figures in low relief are only slightly raised, less than 1 mm high. Nonetheless, in most cases, the contours of the figures are clearly recognisable, as their smoothed surfaces stand out clearly against the carefully and evenly chiselled rough background. In general, the relief appears rather fresh and does not exhibit significant traces of weathering or abrasion. There are a few small pits and wart-like structures of natural origin, but apart from this, the image area is fairly even and undamaged. \n\nApparently, some black paint had been applied shortly after the stone’s discovery, but this is now almost completely faded or washed off (Oehrl 2019a, pl. 237b–c). The colour of the right half of the image-bearing surface differs from that of the rest of the stone, as it appears slightly brownish and is surrounded by a thin, dark, and rectangular frame (ibid.). This frame seems to be of dust or soot, but it adheres firmly to the surface and cannot be removed with a hand brush. These differences in colour appear to be due to storage conditions. Possibly, another object – either while the stone was built in the church or during its storage in the museum’s depot – rested on the stone’s obverse for some considerable time. The condition might also indicate that at some unknown moment after the fragment’s discovery, the right part of the image-bearing surface was moulded with latex or silicone. There is, however, no information about such a procedure.

In a photo collection kept at Gotland’s Museum (Bildstenar, N–V, okänd fyndplats [extra foto]) there is a photograph that show the stone with tracings in black paint, which probably was taken soon after the fragment was delivered to the Museum in 1954/55 (Oehrl 2019a, pl. 237a). Attached to the photo are brief details – dimensions, year of discovery, material – as well as a short sentence describing the stone’s images: “Halva överdelen av stenen med bandfläta och 2 scener med människor” (ʻHalf of the upper part of the stone with interlace and two scenes with humansʼ). The tracing, as it can be seen on this photo from the 1950s, reveals the following pictures: \n\nAt the remaining edge of the stone’s head, the complex interlace pattern of a border is clearly visible. In the lower part of the fragment, there are the remnants of a wide, horizontal border with an indistinct pattern, which separates two image panels. Of the lower panel, only a small part has survived; on it, there is a small roundel, surrounded by further, but unrecognisable elements. The upper image panel is preserved to its full height, but the left half is gone. A narrow, vertical bar divides the surviving surface into two fields. In the left field, a tall, upright anthropomorphic figure can be seen that could represent a man in a tunic, with a short chin (beard?) and hair or braids ascending to his neck. It might also be a woman, however. The figure is turned to the left, towards further but blurred elements, possibly another vertical border. The figure’s arms are pointed downwards, with the forearms slightly bent. The left forearm appears to merge into a loop-shaped object, while the right touches the vertical border. In the right field, also traced with paint, another human figure is turned to the left, and there is a wide braid down its neck. The figure’s arms hang down and end in stumps at about waist level. From the waist down, this peculiar figure is surrounded with a variety of elongated or wavy, serpentine shapes that cannot be clearly defined and are difficult to describe. \n\nA re-investigation of the stone in 2013, based on RTI-technology and 3D models, produced a modified reading of the imagery (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 212–213, pls. 238a–244b). While emerging quite clearly, the anthropomorphic figure in the left field offers few details. The chin and the long hair, highlighted by paint in the old photograph, cannot be made out with certainty. The most distinct part is the torso, down to about waist level, with the straight arms pointing downwards. The left arm appears to merge into (or be stuck in) a round, disc-shaped object. The end of the other arm could be designed the same way, but it is too vague to determine. As there seem to be no legs, these either have been carved very weakly, or instead a woman in a long dress is depicted. An identification of the figure as a woman is more probable than as a man, but there can be no certainty. Very clear is the vertical divider that in its lower half describes a slight curve. There are remains of a further vertical border to the left of the large anthropomorphic figure near the break. The anthropomorphic figure in the right image field could not be verified by Oehrl; where the head of this figure was supposed to be, only a rough, uneven surface was recorded, and the structure formerly identified as a braid is in fact only an isolated, worm-like shape. Likewise, the alleged arms turned out to be worm-like or serpentine figures. Two such ‘serpents’ can be seen clearly in the lower-right corner, and possibly more in the field’s centre and the lower-left corner. In the lower part of the field, there also is a slightly curled and tapering ribbon, which appears to represent another ‘serpent’. On the other hand, however, it also is reminiscent of the head of a bird of prey with a hooked beak. Two appendices, pointing upwards and downwards, respectively, could be interpreted as wings. " } ], "ai2:interpretations": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@value": "If the object into which the arms of the human figure in the left image field merge can in fact be regarded as a ring, two interpretations are viable: They either are enormous jewellery rings on the woman’s wrists, shown disproportionally large, or shackles tying her hands. There are several examples in early medieval art for the depiction of fetters as rings, both in Christian iconography (notably in the case of the bound Satan) and in late Iron-Age imagery in Northern Europe (Oehrl 2011a, esp. pp. 18–25; 2015a, pp. 469–471). A particularly close example is the fragment of the cross-shaft no. 1 in Kirkby Stephen in Cumbria, England, dated to the tenth century. The bearded man portrayed on it is tied with ring-shaped shackles on hands and feet and (among other ideas) has been interpreted as the bound figure of either Satan or the Norse god Loki (Bailey/Cramp 1988, p. 120, figs. 390–393; Kopár 2012, pp. 84–85, 88, fig. 35; Oehrl 2011a, pp. 126–127 with further references, fig. 237). \n\nIf we regard the human figure of Stenkyrka kyrka 11 to be shown both fettered and next to a small rectangular room full of worm- or snakelike animals, the same interpretative options as in the case of GP 209 Klinte Hunninge I, GP 397 Stenkyrka Smiss I, and GP 18 Ardre kyrka VI could be considered (see there, with references). If the figure is male, it could be the hero Gunnarr, who according to the Old Norse tradition of the Nibelung legend met his death in a ‘snake yard’ or snake pit. Possibly the scene depicts the moment just before he is thrown to the snakes or before the snakes are sent into the chamber. Or perhaps the scene deals with the wicked god Loki, who, as told comprehensively by Snorri Sturluson, is punished by the Æsir, tied up in a snake cave, and tormented by a venomous snake. But another interpretation may be the depiction of a post-mortem place of punishment, inhabited by serpents, based on Christian models, as featured in the eddic poem Vǫluspá. If, however, there was a bird with a hooked beak among the worms in the right chamber, this group of animals could be linked to the description of hell in the Old English poem Solomon and Saturn (lines 468–474) of the ninth or tenth century. In it, hell provides not only ‘pale asps’ (blace nædran) and ʻsnake yards’ (wyrmgeardas), but also ʻbloody eagles’ (blodige earnas) for the punishment of Satan and his supporters (van Kirk Dobbie 1968, p. 47).

Lindqvist dated these picture stones to around AD 700 or the early 8th century, but according to Eshleman (1983), the Lärbro group was strongly influenced by the art of the Carolingian Renaissance and therefore instead should be dated to the period between AD 790 and 840. Archaeological excavations at Type C picture stone sites point to around AD 800 as well (Andreeff 2012). Some runic inscriptions on picture stones of Type C, however, have been dated to between AD 850 and 900 (Gustavson 2012, p. 112 with references), and the runes on the monument GP 244 Lokrume kyrka, which also belongs to Lindqvist’s Lärbro group, might even date to the second half of the 10th century (Källström 2012, p. 127). \n\nIt is important to highlight the additional partition of the upper image panel by vertical dividers as an obvious characteristic of Stenkyrka kyrka 11 (Oehrl 2019a, p. 212). A similar treatment is found only once among the Gotlandic picture stones of the ʻAbschnittʼ C– E, namely in the complete monumental stone GP 570 Stenkyrka kyrkogården, which was found in 2007 during excavation work on the churchyard of Stenkyrka. The vertical division of the stone’s head found in both monuments could go back to the design of Romanesque tympana that might be considered as models for picture stones of Type C/D (ibid.; Arrhenius 1970; Andrén 1989, pp. 292–293). These tympana often are heraldically partitioned by vertical picture elements, such as a column, a tree, or Christ in the mandorla. Due to the fact that both picture stones are from the church at Stenkyrka and closely linked by the unusual arrangement of the images in the stone’s head, they might be assigned to the same workshop or school.

Fragmentet är omkring 0.77 m högt och 0.57 m brett och utgör ungefär hälften av stenens huvud. Hela monumentet var antagligen flera meter högt. \n\nDen bevarade delen av ytan visar två bildfält respektive två rum eller kammare jämsides med varandra. En bunden människa befinner sig på vänstra sidan och flera ormar eller maskar (och en rovfågel?) på högra sidan. \n\nDatering \nDen här bildstentypen dateras till 700-talet eller mellan omkring år 800 och 900-talet e.Kr. (vikingatid). \n\nTolkning \nMänniskor som är omgivna och hotade av ormar eller maskar förekommer flera gånger på de gotländska bildstenarna. Se GP 209 Klinte Hunninge I, GP 397 Stenkyrka Smiss I, GP 18 Ardre kyrka VI och GP 21 Ardre kyrka VIII. Vanligen tolkas de antingen enligt bakgrunden till sagan om niflungarna – som hjälten Gunnar som fjättrades av hunnerna och dog i ormgropen – eller som guden Loke som enligt Snorri Sturlussons prosaiska Edda bestraffades av asarna. Loke var bunden i en grotta och plågades av en giftorm fram till världens undergång. Men möjligtvis handlar det istället om en bestraffningsplats för brottslingar i dödsriket, påverkad av det kristna helvetet. En sådan hinsides bestraffningsplats med ormar omtalas i Eddakvädet Vǫluspá (Völvans spådom). \n\nSO " }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 327, "property_label": "Swedish Summary", "is_public":

B. Böttger-Niedenzu reported on the three picture stone fragments to J. P. Lamm and E. Nylén by letter in April 1982, including a rough sketch and short description. Böttger-Niedenzu went through all Gotlandic rural churches during the years 1981 to 1985 and discovered no fewer than 38 previously unknown picture stones. However, the stones from Vallstena church are neither included in her catalogue published in 1988 nor in her photo documentation which is kept at ATA. She only mentions it in her introduction (1988, p. 1), noting that it turned out that the stone had already been reported shortly before she found it. In Lamm’s list (Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 202 no. 394), the find is registered among the recent finds from between 1976 and 1979. An entry in ATA’s inventory book dates to the 23rd of June 1977 (however, only the middle stone [i.e., fragment B, see V and VI] is registered there). Nevertheless, in the photo collections of Riksantikvarieämbetet and ATA (Kyrkor, Gotland, Vallstena, fotografisamlingen A.270:67 + 68), pictures of the stone fragments taken by G. Svahnström in 1958 are preserved. \n\nThere are three rectangular slabs (A–C) that form the entire first step to the choir, which apparently originate from one and the same huge picture stone. They are placed with their narrow sides next to each other. The oldest parts of the current church are the Romanesque nave and lower part of the tower, dating to the beginning of the 13th century (Thure Nyman in Roosval 1935, p. 194). The foundations of a small choir with apse belonging to the Romanesque building were discovered under the church floor during a restoration in 1957. Between 1270 and 1300, the old apsidal choir was replaced by the current angular choir and a reconstruction of the nave was initiated. Apparently, the original plan was to replace the entire nave with a much larger building; however, this project has not been completed and the builders left it at an extension of the eastern part of the old Romanesque nave.

Their visible width is about 0.37 m and their thickness ca. 0.11 m. The limestone is grey in colour, slightly fading to reddish. The west-facing front edge of the slabs is cut straight, and their surface has been levelled, the decoration deliberately obliterated, to which plenty of regular tool marks bear witness. In addition, the remaining surface has been greatly worn and polished by footsteps. Nevertheless, in some areas, parts of the once relatively deeply carved bas-relief are preserved on all three stones. \n\nAs material and treatment correspond, all three fragments seem to originate from one and the same monument. There is one more rectangular slab built into the floor of the nave, just in front of the step, which consists of a very similar limestone and whose surface has been levelled the same way, showing regular tool marks allover. Even though no traces of a former bas-relief decoration are discernable, it seems conceivable that this larger slab belongs to the picture stone as well (fragment D?).

At least the lower outline of a vessel is discernable, turning up at both ends, having a length of ca. 1.50 m in total. At the far left, right next to the northern edge, an upturning stern is discernable. Next to the stern, on board of the ship, a spear or a lance seems to be placed, almost vertically rising, pointing upwards. A single spear/lance or a whole bundle of those weapons at the stern of a ship is frequently depicted on picture stones of type C/D, as on GP 253 Lärbro St. Hammars I, GP 397 Stenkyrka Smiss I, GP 184 Hejnum Riddare, GP 21 Ardre kyrka VIII, and GP 5 Alskog Tjängvide I. An angled element to the right of the possible spear, touching its head, could represent the arm of a crew member, similar to the rearmost man on the Hejnum Riddare stone (according to Lindqvist’s painting, 1941/42 I, fig. 80). There are more traces of carvings on board and to the right of the ship, however, they are difficult to understand. \n\nFragment B: In the middle of the slab, some rhombi are discernable, constituting the remains of a huge checkered sail, as well as a group of vertical and branching longish elements, which certainly represent parts of the rigging. \n\nFragment C: Two or three circular elements in the left and some more rhombi belonging to the sail in the right half of the stone’s surface. There are certainly remains of figures in the middle of the slab; however, it is not possible to specify them. \n\nThe orientation of the ship hull depicted on stone A and the rigging on stone B leads to the conclusion that their width represents the width of the original monument’s base, and that the three fragments once were placed one above the other. As a result, this picture stone must have been at least 2.40 m wide at its base (i.e., just above the ground) and its root part must have been even broader. This fact indicates an extraordinarily tall and tremendous picture stone. For comparison: The tallest entirely preserved picture stone on Gotland, GP 61 Buttle Änge I, has a width at ground level of 1.85 m. From the ground to the top, this monument is 3.70 m tall and 4.80 m including its root. The stone from Vallstena kyrka seems to have been even larger, comparable to the fragmented giant stone from GP 549 Väskinde kyrka 6, whose original height must have been at least 5.50 m (Oehrl 2020b).

These fragments are mentioned only briefly by Lindqvist (1956, pp. 29–30) as well as in Lamm and Nylénʼs handbook (2003, p. 48), where it is noted that the slab must have been more than 3.55 m tall. Lindqvist calls it the largest picture stone known so far (1956, p. 30). More information can be found in the relevant archives (ATA Go, V 198, Väskinde, Visby Stift Gotlands Län, Kungl. Byggnadsstyrelsen, Kulturhistoriska Byrån; ATA Go, Väskinde sn, Kyrkan, Dnr. 2029; GF Foto 978.46-48; GF rapport 114/53). Furthermore, the stone was mentioned in several newspaper articles in 1953 and 1963. The available information and pictures were published by Oehrl (2019, pp. 295–296, figs. 344c, 345a–c; see also Oehrl 2020b). \n\nDuring a restoration of the church in 1953, the wooden floor of the choir was removed and three picture stone pieces were uncovered in the medieval stone floor. They represent the two trapezoidal edge pieces and a roughly rectangular middle part of a tall Type C stone, which was split lengthwise twice. The two edge pieces indicate the monument’s characteristic mushroom shape. They were lying foot to foot, the convex head parts turned towards the altar, the broken edge facing the nave, forming the last step leading up to the floor level of the altar. The third fragment, the picture stone’s middle piece, is part of the first step up to the choir. Approximately half of it is covered by the picture stone pieces forming the last step. Remains of the figurative decoration of the stone as well as a runic inscription which will be described below (see VIII), are preserved only on this hidden part. \n\nAccording to the letters kept in the archives, the persons in charge in 1953 discussed the idea of moving the pieces into Gotland’s Museum. Eventually, however, the estimated costs for the removal of the fragments and the installation of new stone slabs were regarded as too high and as a disproportionate effort, as the stone hardly preserved any imagery. As a result, the monument was built in again and still lies in the church floor, where the carvings remain invisible. \n\nThe current choir was erected in the late 13th century when a previous church was rebuilt. During the early 14th century, the rebuilding was completed by the erection of the current nave and tower. Thus, the picture stone could have been incorporated into the floor during the late 13th century. \n\nThe other stones found during the church restoration in 1953 are GP 554 Väskinde kyrka 5 and GP 555 Väskinde kyrka 7, mentioned by Lindqvist in his article published in 1956 (Lindqvist 1956, pp. 27–30). The picture stones GP 546–548 and GP 557 (Väskinde kyrka I–IV) were published in “Gotlands Bildsteine”.

The decoration was deleted, with the exception of the small hidden area at the edge of the middle part, which is hidden by the stone on top of it (see VI). Traces of the medieval stonemason’s wedges used for the splitting and typical medieval surface treatment can be observed, confirming that the picture stone was built into the church during the Middle Ages, probably in the second half of the 13th century, when the altar room was erected. Nevertheless, the typical shape of the head section – the only visible element indicating a Gotlandic picture stone – was maintained by the stonecutter. \n\nThe stone fragments forming the steps to the altar room, preserving the head and upper body of the monument, indicate a stone slab that originally was c. 3.55 m in height. All pieces are about 0.40 m wide and 0.20 m thick. However, the original width of the monument remains unclear, as the middle part is incomplete; furthermore, even the width of the edge pieces could have been greater than are seen today. In any case, the lower part of this magnificient monument was cut off, which would have made the original even taller than 3.55 m. According to Faith-Ells’s photos (GF Foto 978.46-48), the remains of a chequered sail are clearly visible on the lower part of the decorated area. The sail and the ship must have been particularly large, but only a small section of the sail’s upper part is preserved. Thus, a significant part of the monument’s lower field is missing, as well as its root, which must have been extraordinarily large in order to give this giant stone slab sufficient stability. The entire stone must have been at least (!) two metres taller than the three remaining fragments suggest. As a result, this unique monument seems to have had a height of considerably more than 5.55 m, which would make it by far the largest Gotlandic picture stone currently known. This was already suggested by Greta Arwidsson in her unpublished report in 1953 (GF Koncnr 114/53). Lindqvist (1956, p. 30) also calls the stone the largest known picture stone, however, without stating any measures. It is tempting to suggest that two trapezoidal stone slabs of approximately 2 m length each, which are built into the floor of the altar room, also belong to the missing lower part of the picture stone. They lie between the last step and the altar, next two the south and north walls (part 4 and 5 according to Oehrl 2019). Even if this interpretation is correct, however, the main part of the root would probably still be missing.

The piece is roughly rectangular, with an irregular edge at its right long side, where it was broken off. It is only a narrow, vertical area along this edge, narrowing toward the top that is still ornamented, while the part left to it (i.e., the surface of the first step) was completely smoothed by the stonemason. However, the decorated part is covered by the upper step on top of it and thus invisible today. During the church restoration in 1953, the upper steps were lifted, which allowed the decoration on the step stone beneath to be examined, traced with charcoal, and photographed. According to these photos made by H. Faith-Ell (GF Foto 978.46-48), a small part of an originally very large, chequered ship sail is preserved at the bottom of the decorated area. \n\nThe surviving section of the picture field above the sail seems to be polished or damaged; only small parts of it were traced with colour. At the bottom of this field, just above the sail, remains of a runic inscription can be seen (see VIII). At the upper edge of the picture field, two angled oblong elements can be isolated, reminiscent of the rows of sword-swinging warriors on GP 253 Lärbro St. Hammars I. Considering this resemblance, it seems plausible that the picture field above shows the remains of a depiction similar to the possible human sacrifice motif on the head part of the St. Hammars I monument. The Väskinde slab seems to depict a human figure wearing a long garment at the right edge of the field, which stretches its arm to the left. The figure’s hand appears to merge into an irregular and strange-looking object, which, compared to the depiction in a corresponding position on the Lärbro slab, could well be regarded as a bird (of prey) with its wings shown at the sides and close to the body. The three-pronged element above the possible bird is bent towards the human figure’s head and can easily be compared to the apparently vegetal element which on the Lärbro stone extends into the picture field from above. \n\nFrom here, the decorated section tapers, and the traced elements cannot be identified with any known motif or figure depiction. In the picture field just above the presumed person with the bird, another angled sword-like element is emphasised – possibly indicating further warrior figures wielding their weapons. Remains of at least one more picture field can be assumed. Lindqvist mentioned the stone only briefly in his 1956 (p. 30) article, mentioning the ship and the runic inscription, however, without describing them further.

If the assumption is correct that the middle part of the giant stone preserves remains of a sacrifice scene similar to GP 253 Lärbro St. Hammars I and GP 175 Hangvar kyrka II, the Väskinde monument belongs to Lindqvist’s ʻLärbro groupʼ, which he dated to around AD 700 or the early 8th century. According to Lori Eshleman (1983), the Lärbro group was strongly influenced by the art of the Carolingian Renaissance and thus instead should be dated to the period between AD 790 and 840. The results of archaeological excavations at Type C picture stone sites also point to around AD 800 (Andreeff 2012). The inscription contains a clue for the stone’s date as well; long-twig runes were used from the early 8th century onwards. Short-twig runes do not emerge before AD 800.

of an early picture stone was noticed in a door frame (report by Greta Arwidsson, GF Koncnr 114/53). The piece was reused in the stone walled frame of a small door leading to the tower stair. According to archival material, in September 1960, Erik Nylén took measures to remove the stone from the church and to bring it to Gotland’s Museum, as it was increasingly contaminated by oil leaking from a metal hinge attached above (ATA Go, Väskinde sn, Kyrkan, Dnr. 5932/60). Traces of original paint preserved on the stone were in danger to be affected as well. The National Heritage Board accepted Nylén’s application. The stone was removed, and a concrete stone is placed in the right half of the door frame today, replacing the picture stone fragment. Despite an intensive search, it was impossible to identify the fragment in the museum’s storage in Visborg (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 296–297). In March 2021, however, the stone was finally rediscovered during a thorough inventory control as part of the Ancient Images project. \n\nIn the late 13th century, a previous church was rebuilt and a new choir was erected. During the early 14th century, the rebuilding was completed by the erection of the current nave and tower. Thus, the picture stone must have been incorporated during the early 14th century or around 1300. \n\nThe other stones found during the church restauration in 1953 are GP 554 Väskinde kyrka 5 and GP 549 Väskinde kyrka 6, mentioned by Lindqvist in an article published in 1956 (Lindqvist 1956, pp. 27–30). Interestingly, the fragment No. 7 discussed here is not mentioned in Lindqvist’s article. The picture stones GP 546–548 and GP 557 (Väskinde kyrka I–IV) were published in “Gotlands Bildsteine”.

These details are only mentioned here (Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 199), and for a long time, since the stone was untraceable for half a century, there had been no chance to check this information. After the rediscovery of the stone in 2021, the carvings on it could be examined in detail with the help of 3D technology. At the upper edge, part of an elaborated horizontal border is visible, which shows a mirrored spiral pattern, as is characteristic for the stones of the Bro type. Below this is placed the upper half of a large roundel with a whorl motif. Every second crescent of the whorl is carved. In the corners to the left and right between the border and the roundel, a small human figure is carved, of which the one on the right is much better preserved. Both hold a round shield in which a spear is apparently stuck. This constellation confirms in an astonishing way the interpretation of GP 43 Bro kyrka I proposed by Oehrl (2019a, pp. 154–161, pls. 146–155) on the basis of RTI examinations and 3D modelling. Here Oehrl also reconstructed two warriors in the corners with spears in their shields and compared this battle scene with both corresponding Vendel period pressblech motifs and two warrior figures on GP 3 Alskog kyrka (pl. 155b–e) The almost unique fineness with which the figures were carved on the Väskinde stone is remarkable. Even the belt of the right fighter was carved precisely. The entire human figure is carved, and the tool marks are clearly visible and appear fresh.

Parallels can be found in the imagery of the Vendel period and on the picture stone GP 3 Alskog kyrka (pl. 155b–e) on which the fighters hurl whole volleys of spears, some of which are stuck in their shields. Whether it is a judicial duel, an ordal, a famous duel from heroic legend or a battle in the afterlife cannot be determined.

In 1982, Böttger-Niedenzu submitted her master’s thesis on Gotland’s picture stones to the Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich, and during the years 1981 to 1985, she visited the Gotlandic rural churches, discovering not fewer than 38 previously unknown picture stones, which she published in a brief catalogue in 1988. \n\nThe picture stone fragments GP 97 Garda kyrka I and GP 98 Garda kyrka II, which are incorporated into the tower, first recorded in 1914, were published by Sune Lindqvist in 1941/42; four more picture stone fragments GP 99–102 Garda kyrka 3–6 were discovered under the floor of the nave by Gustav Trotzig during archaeological excavations in 1968 (Trotzig 1970). These fragments had been re-used in the floor of an earlier church building. Garda church is regarded as one of the oldest churches of Gotland (Lagerlöf 1972; Lagerlöf/Svahnström 1991, pp. 142–144; Andrén 2011, pp. 199–201). As early as around AD 1100, there was a wooden church at the same place. This Viking Age church wassplaed by an early Romanesque building by the middle of the 12th century, the nave and the lower part of the tower of which are still preserved. In the middle of the 13th century, the tower was built up to its present height; in the first half of the 14th century, the Romanesque choir and apse were demolished and replaced by the current large Gothic choir. Among the church’s most remarkable features are the Russo-Byzantine wall paintings on the tower arch and in the nave. \n\nThe stone found by Böttger-Niedenzu in 1984 was wrongly labelled by Jan Peder Lamm as “Garda kyrka 4” (Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 202). As a matter of fact, GP 101 Garda kyrka 4 is one of the four stones discovered by Trotzig in 1968. Therefore, the stone in the lychgate must be labelled as Garda kyrka 7 instead. The rectangular stone was incorporated into the niche in the inner wall of the northern lychgate, representing the bottom slab of the niche. The churchyard’s southern, eastern and northern lychgates originate from the period 1350–1375. The western lychgate was built between 1200 and 1250.

An element that rises up next to the stem, which narrows towards the top and overtopping the stem, could be interpreted as a crewman turning to the right (i.e., east).

The sail itself is lost, except some tiny parts of carved rhombi in the top right (i.e., northeast) corner of the stone. Three sheet ropes are running towards the sail, one behind the possible crewman and two in front of him, apparently fastened to the stem.

Therefore, it can be roughly dated to between the 8th century and the 10th century. The stone provides several remarkable features: Sheet ropes directly attached to the top of the stem are quite unusual. They can also be observed on the Type D stones GP 211 Klinte Hunninge III and GP 94 Garda Bote (both Type D according to Lindqvist). The strange shape of the stem, however, is without comparison. Triangular waves are depicted on a relatively small group of Type C/D stones (in particular, GP 170 Halla kyrka 5, GP 212 Klinte Klintebys, GP 572 Eksta kyrka and GP 563 Väte kyrka 2 as well as GP 280 När Smiss I). Finally, the ship’s position on the stone must be regarded as a particular characteristic. As the sailing ship is not placed in the lower part of the picture stone as usual but rather in its upper body or neck area, the Garda stone is closely related to GP 209 Klinte Hunninge I and the monuments GP 21 Ardre kyrka VIII and GP 5 Alskog Tjängvide I (both Type D according to Lindqvist). A similar position of the ship, also including the triangular waves, can be seen on Klinte Klintebys and Väte kyrka 2. Therefore, the Garda monument could be considered as belonging to Lindqvist’s ʻKlinte-Gruppeʼ or to the ʻTjängvide Gruppeʼ.
