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). In contrast, Hauck (1983a, pp. 543–545) classifies Hablingbo Havor I as defining for his type IV (type IV,1) which is characterised by a whorl roundel as central motif, while GP 537 Vallstena Vallstenarum I belongs to his type V. 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).

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 GP 132 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 lies a ringfort, several buildings with stone foundations as well as the remains of further settlements in the immediately surrounding area. The ringfort was built no later than 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 a 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 picture stone was found during the excavation of the cemetery of Havor in 1886. It was discovered in a late Viking Age grave (grave No. 191) where it was re-used as grave slab together with six partly fragmented picture stones (GP 134–138 Hablingbo Havor III–VII; the seventh stone is missing), similar to 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). The grave – a shallow burial mound with the inhumation of a male gendered individual with the head to the south – was located in a separated group of late Viking Age burials in the western area of the cemetery (see Toplak 2022). The deceased was buried in a supine position with dress accessories including two penannular brooches and a belt with eastern-type belt mounts as well as a knife, a comb, a fire striker, a clay pot and a large bronze bowl, which was probably imported to Gotland from the Frankish realm (Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 IV, p. 302; Toplak 2022, in press). The seven limestone slabs (labelled A–F by Gustafson) were arranged as a cover slab, based on two 3,3 m long rows of eight and nine fieldstones, respectively, that framed the 0,4–0,5-m broad burial pit. The obverses of the picture stones were facing downwards towards the burial. According to a rough sketch of the grave slab in situ, made by Gustafson during the excavation, the picture stone Hablingbo Havor II (stone A according to Gustafson’s designation) formed the southern end of the grave slab directly above the head of the deceased. \n\nAll seven picture stones were re-erected in the vicinity of the grave after the end of the excavation season in 1886. While the other five picture stones from grave 191 (GP 134–138 Hablingbo Havor III–VII; the sixth picture stone is lost) were moved from their location in the cemetery in Nilsson’s Träskhage (marshy pasture) to the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm as early as 1918 during a visit by Fredrik Nordin, the picture stone Hablingbo Havor II remained at the burial ground for almost two more decades. In 1910, during his last visit on Gotland, Gustafson examined the seven picture stones which he had excavated in 1886 and could not identify any serious damage on the picture stone. Nevertheless, in the 1930s moving the picture stone to a protected place such as Hablingbo church was discussed to prevent further damage to the stone, which was only covered with a tarpaulin during winter. In 1937, Sune Lindqvist suggested bringing the picture stone to Visby to consider the interests of the local population, where it was placed in Gotlands Fornsal in October of the same year. \n\nMT\n" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2178", "value_resource_id": 2178, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2178", "display_title": "GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/4c1a0d3d1a6d42f9571d0dcca85841b3fc3ccc46.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0132.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, 16–18 cm thick on average.

Bands are accompanied by approximately 1-cm-long and 2-mm-wide lines with rounded bases that stand at right angles to the band’s edges. Similar chiselled lines occasionally appear to form the band’s contours, but mostly the bands are defined by the same fine chisel lines running parallel to the bands and also filling the band’s inner surfaces. The chamfers toward the narrow sides at a distance of about 1 cm are accompanied by shallow grooves that at the right and left edges are not quite 1 cm wide but reach a width of 1.5 cm towards the top.” The upper narrow side is decorated with a broad border with stylised floral tendril ornamentation with the central ‘leaf’ formed like an animal’s head. \n\nAlong the vertical edges, broad borders without contour lines run down toward the root, decorated with a ‘running dog scroll’ motif with stylised animal heads on all its terminals that resembles the zoomorphic meander in the ‘Maison des Dauphins’ in Delos (c. 100 BC) (Holmqvist 1952a, pp. 14–16; Oehrl 2019a, p. 25, fn. 254). The gaps between the curved bands of the ‘running dogs’ form triangular spandrels that represent the necks of the animal heads. As Lindqvist (1941/42 II, p. 55) notes, “apparently all have been chiselled in completely; only once there seems to be a triangle in the middle that clearly was left standing.” From the mouths of the two uppermost animal heads, curled tongues reach into the centre of the stone. As on GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I, the central motif is a large roundel, measuring 46,0 cm in diameter but with a looped square (Saint Hannes cross (St. John’s cross) or Bowen knot which also appears on a gold bracteate, dating to the late Roman Iron Age or early Migration Perion (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 22–23) instead of the whirl rosette. This looped square as a motif in the central roundel is an exception, the so-called “Vallstena-Havor-typus” according to Sigmund Oehrl (2019a, pp. 9, 125, fn. 1156; see also Guber 2011, pp. 43–47). Below the roundel, two upright, standing, stylised antithetical animal figures are depicted whose bodies are similar to the s-shaped loops of the vertical borders. A circular ornament is depicted between their wide-open mouths. \n\nThe reading of the decoration is relatively consistent on the different representations of the picture stone such as the drawing by Olof Sörling (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 55) and the repainting by Lindqvist (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, fig. 23). The only difference is the more precise reconstruction of the lower part of the picture stone with the two upright, standing animal figures, which are only partially reproduced in Sörling’s drawing. However, Gustafson had arrived at the same interpretation of the lower section of the centre field in his last examination of the stone in 1910, as can be seen in a sketch in one of his notebooks (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 55). Contrary to what was initially assumed by several researchers – including Rutger Sernander, Nordin and cautiously also Gustafson – there were, however, no remains of the original (presumed) painting on the stone. \n\nMT\n" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 284, "property_label": "Description of Ornament and Images", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2178", "value_resource_id": 2178, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2178", "display_title": "GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/4c1a0d3d1a6d42f9571d0dcca85841b3fc3ccc46.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0132.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" } ], "ai2:interpretations": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@value": "Similar to the whorl rosette, surrounded by a corona of rays or spikes, on the picture stone GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I, the looped square in the centre of Hablingbo Havor II can also be interpreted as a symbol of the sun (Oehrl 2019a, pp. 120, 124–125). More elaborate information on the possible interpretation of whirl motifs as sun symbols and the iconography of the Type A picture stones is available in the article on GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV. \n\nSince the upright, standing, antithetical animal figures below the central motif might be regarded as ceto- or dragon-like (sea) creatures analogous to other early picture stones (Oehrl 2019a, p. 109) and the stylised animals of the ‘running dog scroll’ motif of the broad borders resemble sea creatures such as dolphins in antique zoomorphic meanders such as in Delos (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, p. 89; Holmqvist 1952, pp. 10–16), the entire scene could be interpreted as rise of the life-giving sun from the sea (or perhaps from the underworld). If this interpretation was understood by the late Viking Age society at Havor, the position of the picture stone Hablingbo Havor II with its obverse facing the head of the deceased might reflect ideas of some form of a spiritual rebirth in the afterlife. In contrast, based on the interpretation of spiral roundels as labyrinthine symbols for the underworld, as suggested by Karl Hauck (1983a, pp. 546–547, 578–579; 1983b, pp. 444–445; see Oehrl 2019a, p. 125), the entire scene could depict and thus anticipate the deceased’s journey to the world beyond. \n\nMT\n" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2178", "value_resource_id": 2178, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2178", "display_title": "GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/4c1a0d3d1a6d42f9571d0dcca85841b3fc3ccc46.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0132.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/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" } ], "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 5 – “Havor-Austers-Gruppe”, named after the stones Hablingbo Havor II and GP 172 Hangvar Austers. Characteristic of this group of monuments, consisting only of these two stones, is the significantly reduced height in relation to the width. In contrast, Hauck (1983a, pp. 543–545) classifies Hablingbo Havor II as representative for his type V (type V,4), defined by a spiral roundel as central motif. Martin Rundkvist, in turn, suggests a typological classification of the outline shapes of the picture stones and defines Hablingbo Havor II as Type dwarf1 (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 final phase of socio-political, economical, and perhaps even religious importance of the society at Havor and a rapid decline during 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/2218", "value_resource_id": 2218, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2218", "display_title": "GP 172 Hangvar Austers II", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/b3bd11107d928c78f5db3c2be290f89259db5628.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0172.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, pp. 23, 28, 33, fig. 23, 26*; II, pp. 54–55, fig. 367, 373; 1962, 11; Holmqvist 1952a, pp. 8, 13–16; Lamm/Nylén 2003, pp. 38–39; Hauck 1983a, pp. 545, 551, fig. 9; Hauck 1983b, pp. 444–445; Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 III, p. 583; Guber 2011, p. 122 cat. no. 25; Oehrl 2019a, pp. 9–10, 23, 25, 109, 120, 125; II, table 1, 87; Rundkvist 2012, pp. 151, table 2, 152, 157, fig. 5a, 159, table 3; Toplak 2022, p. 88; Oehrl/Toplak, in press; Toplak, in press.

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 GP 132 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 immediately surrounding area. The ringfort was built no later than 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 a 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 picture stone was found during the excavation of the cemetery of Havor in 1886. It was discovered in a late Viking Age grave (grave No. 191) where it was re-used as grave slab together with six partly fragmented picture stones (GP 133, 135–138 Hablingbo Havor II, IV–VII; the seventh stone is missing), similar to 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). The grave – a shallow burial mound with the inhumation of a male gendered individual with the head to the south – was located in a separated group of late Viking Age burials in the western area of the cemetery (see Toplak 2022). The deceased was buried in a supine position with dress accessories including two penannular brooches and a belt with eastern-type belt mounts as well as a knife, a comb, a fire striker, a clay pot and a large bronze bowl, which was probably imported to Gotland from the Frankish realm (Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 IV, p. 302; Toplak 2022, in press). The seven limestone slabs (labelled A–F by Gustafson) were arranged as a cover slab, based on two 3,3 m long rows of eight and nine fieldstones respectively that framed the 0,4–0,5-m broad burial pit. The obverses of the picture stones were facing downwards towards the burial. According to a rough sketch of the grave slab in situ, made by Gustafson during the excavation, the picture stone Hablingbo Havor III (stone G according to Gustafson’s designation) was part of the northern end of the grave slab above the northeastern foot end of the grave. \n\nAll seven picture stones were re-erected in the vicinity of the grave after the end of the excavation season in 1886. Five picture stones, GP 134–138 Hablingbo Havor III–VII, from grave 191 were moved from their location in the cemetery in Nilsson’s Träskhage (marshy pasture) to the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm as early as 1918 during a visit by Fredrik Nordin, while the picture stone GP 133 Hablingbo Havor II remained in the cemetery. According to an anonymous source, one of the stones was accidentally smashed during the removal of the stones. Parts of this stone are said to have lain behind a cattle shed for a long time. It can be assumed that this was Gustafson’s stone F from grave 191, which had already been excavated in two pieces in 1886. It is possible that stone F – i.e. GP 568 Hablingbo Havor (IX) – was an undecorated limestone slab or a picture stone that had already been ‘blind’ (smooth with no images visible) in the Viking Age, since according to the excavation report stone F was the only stone to have lain with the ‘best side’ (i.e. the smooth side) facing upwards, while the visible carvings on all the other stones were facing downwards towards the burial. This could explain why the fragmented stone had not been taken to Stockholm and has never been inventoried (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/2178", "value_resource_id": 2178, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2178", "display_title": "GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I", "thumbnail_url": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/files/square/4c1a0d3d1a6d42f9571d0dcca85841b3fc3ccc46.jpg", "thumbnail_title": "GP0132.jpg", "thumbnail_type": "image/jpeg" }, { "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/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" }, { "type": "resource", "property_id": 282, "property_label": "Context and Discovery", "is_public": true, "@id": "https://gotlandicpicturestones.se/api/items/2629", "value_resource_id": 2629, "value_resource_name": "items", "url": "/s/index/item/2629", "display_title": "GP 586 Hablingbo Havor (IX)" } ], "ai2:measurementsMaterialAndCondition": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 283, "property_label": "Measurements, Material and Condition", "is_public": true, "@value": "“Limestone slab, 10.5 cm thick.

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, 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, 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 necropolis, however, remains still 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 necropolis 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 find circumstances of Halla Broa XIV are described briefly by Lindqvist (1941/42 II, p. 65) as followings: “Picture stone that was found together with a stone sphere [gravklot] (diameter 20 cm, height 16 cm) by the farmer Gustaf Jakobsson [sic], about 100 m away from the monastery meadow, when he cultivated an old path. Presented to GF in 1927.” After Lindqvist’s map, the find spot is located circa 50 m west of the border to Klosterängen (Roma parish). According to a first report by Bengt Bergman dating to 1927-10-10 (ATA dnr 4217), the stone was found by Karl Gustafsson (sic) in the summer 1927 on an agricultural field. In a second report from 1927-11-30 (ATA dnr 5009), Bergman describes the find situation in more detail. The picture stone was discovered by C. O. Gustafsson (sic) about 250 m north of his house, where it had been incorporated into a prehistoric stone enclosure (vast). Gustafsson found the stone together with a gravklot (large spherical stone) and several other limestone slabs when he started to remove the enclosure. At the time when the report was written, circa 70 m of the 5 m wide vast were still standing, and some further limestone slabs were sticking out of it. About 150 north of Gustafsson’s house, in the forest, next to a footpath, a pile of granite stones and limestone slabs probably represented a grave mound (röse), from which the material of the vast, the gravklot and the picture stone, presumably originate from.

His description is very brief, without characterizing the ornamentation patterns: “[…] a 9 cm wide, double border along the upper edge can be observed as well as probably single borders along both vertical edges. In the field, there is a roundel of 28 cm width. At least in the upper border and in the roundel, chiselled background fields occur” (ibid. II, p. 65). The photo of the painted stone, which dates to 1937 (cf. ATA Run- och bildstenssamling B3:78), however, is much more detailed – The double border along the convex upper edge consists of two mirrored rows of crescents (see IX), the upper being heavily weathered. The vertical borders are formed by simple grooves. The roundel in the main field represents a whorl with six raised and six sunken crescent-shaped arms. The whorl is decorated with a corona consisting of 19 spikes, which are chiselled as well. The first photo of the stone taken by Ture Carlson in 1927 (ATA dnr 1664:1927), however, only reveals the outline of the upper border and the outline of the roundel, traced with a pen, as described in Lindqvist’s book. Even when applying digital tools based on 3D-scanning, only minor parts of the upper border and fragments of the roundel can be identified (Larsen 2009, p. 20, fig. 13). The painted version published in Lindqvist’s book appears to be much reconstructive.

It lies directly south of Lilla Ire farm, on a narrow, elongated elevation in the terrain, an area of about 385 x 40–70 m (NNV-SSÖ) immediately along and east of the road between Lilla Ire and Stora Ire. An estimated 400 (according to RAÄ, while Stenberger mentioned about 600) stone settings (rösen (cairns) and other circular stone settings) are still visible today. The burial ground was used continuously from the Roman Iron Age to the late Viking Period, is rich in finds and barely disturbed. During the straightening of the road, the first graves, dating to different periods, were archaeologically investigated in 1933–34. This was followed by isolated investigations of graves in various areas of the cemetery. In 1941–43 and 1945, the southern, Viking Age part of the burial ground was completely excavated under the direction of Mårten Stenberger (1936; 1942a–b; 1961; Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 IV:1, pp. 390–437). \n\nHellvi Ire I was discovered by Stenberger in 1935 when excavating the stone mound (cairn) (röse) no. 396 (= grave 99 in Nerman 1969/75; Stenberger 1936, pp. 91–96, fig. 11; Rundkvist 2012, p. 153 no. 25), which was almost oval, with a diameter of 3.3–4.0 m and a height of 35 cm. The picture stone had been used as cover slab directly on top of an undisturbed cremation burial within the stone mound, its obverse facing upwards. The back of the stone was stained black from the ashes of the cremation. The burial contained a sword, a lance, a set of gaming pieces of bone, several rectangular bronze and iron mounts, a knife, rivets with bronze heads, domed bronze sheet spangles, iron nails, fragments of a bone comb, a decorated pottery vessel, and a whetstone. The burial can be dated to the 6th century. Furthermore, the mound contained a female burial, also a cremation, with 28 glass beads, a carnelian, and the shaft of a bronze key. An exact dating of the female burial is not possible. \n\nStenberger (1936, p. 96) and Lindqvist (1942/42 I, pp. 32–33, fig. 1; cf. ATA run- och bildstenssamling A216:158) consider that Hellvi Ire I may have originally been erected on top of the nearby stone mound no. 394, which was framed by a ring of kerbstones. However, this is pure speculation. Lindqvist includes these kerbstones in his catalogue as “Hellvi Ire II”, although they have no decoration at all and therefore do not represent a kind of picture stone. However, as Lindqvist includes them, the stones GP 566–569 Hellvi Ire II:1–4 are also included in the present edition.

The sickle-shaped spokes have a double outer line, just like the roundel itself. The corona of the roundel is formed by carved triangles, from which three line-shaped peaks extend. In the centre of the roundel there is a small central circle from which the sickle elements emanate, like a propeller. Below the whorl roundel is a pair of smaller roundels, not completely preserved, which show star-shaped rosettes, formed by 4- and 7-pointed oval prongs/leaves. The edge decoration of the picture stone consists of a double groove on the slightly convex upper side and single grooves on the lateral edges. From the latter, wave-shaped elements extend inwards and, like the prongs of the corona, end in three points. “Decorated with chiselled lines and chiselled background fields. The diameter of the large roundel is 75.5 cm (not counting the corona). Below, the left roundel is 28 cm in diameter, the right 28.5 cm. The grooves following the chamfers are 4 mm wide” (1941/42 II, p. 74). \n\nThe first published photograph of the stone by Stenberger (1936, fig. 12) depicts it with secondary paint, largely corresponding to Lindqvist’s interpretation, but instead of the three-pointed wavy elements on the edge lines, it reproduces remnants of a zigzag pattern.

That these are to be understood as reminiscences of Roman depictions of dolphins, ketoi and other sea creatures, for which three-part tails are quite characteristic, can hardly be overlooked (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, p. 89; II, pp. 91–92; Holmqvist 1952a; Hauck 1983a, pp. 547, 551). It is therefore more than likely that the tripartite elements on Hellvi Ire I are to be interpreted as sea creature abbreviations. \n\nIn Hauck’s view, the dolphin imitations on Gotland’s early picture stones also took on the meaning of their models on Roman and early Christian gravestones, where they were to be understood as saviours of humans and guides of the soul. Thus, according to Hauck, the appearance of these creatures fits well into the iconography of the Type A stones, in which he sees prayers carved in stone that quote the horrors of death as well as the promise of assistance and salvation. The main symbol of this is the large roundel with the whorl motif, which represents the sun and promises the eternal return of life (Hauck 1983a, esp. p. 547. cf. Pesch 2015b, p. 95). \n\nMore elaborate information on the possible interpretation of whorl motifs and the iconography of the Type A picture stones can be found in the article on GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV.

Lindqvist classifies the fragment as representative of his northern Gotlandic Pavalsgruppe, named after the stone GP 263 Lärbro Pavals (1941/42 I, p. 27). Characteristic of this relatively small group of monuments is their less-curved form with only a very slightly convex upper edge and hardly any protruding corners, and the depiction of rosettes and ʻdolphinʼ creatures (see VII). The stone is of some importance for Lindqvist’s dating of ʻAbschnittʼ A, as he sees particularly striking parallels between its decoration and the decoration of the Sösdala-style brooch from Eidsten in Vestfold, Norway (ibid. p. 109, fig. 250). In fact, the similarities are not limited to the design of the whorl motif alone, but also concern, as Hauck (1983a, pp. 591–592) notes, the combination of the whorl with star-shaped motifs as well as the appearance of sea creatures (in the case of Eidsten, a fish, ibid. fig. 56b). \n\nGrave no. 394, on which, according to Stenberger and Lindqvist, the picture stone could have originally stood (see IV) dates to the 5th century or around AD 500. However, this reconstruction is speculative and cannot be supported. In any case, the grave in which Hellvi Ire I was secondarily incorporated dates to the 6th century (Period VII:1 according to Nerman, i.e., c. AD 550–600).

It lies directly south of Lilla Ire farm, on a narrow, elongated elevation in the terrain, an area of about 385 x 40–70 m (NNV-SSÖ) immediately along and east of the road between Lilla Ire and Stora Ire. An estimated 400 (according to RAÄ, while Stenberger mentioned about 600) stone settings (rösen (cairns) and other circular stone settings) are still visible today. The burial ground was used continuously from the Roman Iron Age to the late Viking Period, is rich in finds and nearly undisturbed. During the straightening of the road, the first graves, dating to different periods, were archaeologically investigated in 1933–34. This was followed by isolated investigations of graves in various areas of the cemetery. In 1941–43 and 1945, the southern, Viking Age part of the burial ground was completely excavated under the direction of Mårten Stenberger (1936; 1942a–b; 1961; Thunmark-Nylén 1995–2006 IV:1, pp. 390–437). \n\nThe nine small fragments that obviously all belong to one and the same picture stone, Hellvi Ire IV, “[...] were recovered by Nils G. Gillgren in 1934 during explorations in the grave field. Most of them were found among the remains of an old stone wall that had crossed the burials 280–299 but was removed before the investigation began. Four other fragments lay in a stone setting formed by broken limestone slabs below ground. This stone setting covered grave 304” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 74; cf. ATA dnr 2700-1934). This grave contained an undisturbed cremation burial with some copper alloy fragments, four beads, a bone spindle whorl, a line-decorated bone fragment, and an animal tooth. The grave probably dates to the Vendel Period (Rundkvist 2012, p. 153).

Lindqvist describes the reconstructed picture stone as follows (II, p. 74): “Limestone slab, 15 cm thick at the top, 16 cm further down. The obverse is smooth. The vertical narrow sides are hewn flat across their full width and at a significantly acute angle towards the obverse. Both sides are separated by an almost 2 cm wide chamfer that forms a considerably more obtuse angle towards the obverse than towards the narrow side. The reverse is raw.

Lindqvist documented them comprehensively in his book (1941/42 I, fig. 205–207), with photos of the uncoloured and the secondarily traced carvings. The originals for these, which date from 1933, can be found in ATA’s run- och bildstenssamling (B18:132; B21:90). The following description is based on Lindqvist’s painting, but the carvings are also perfectly comprehensible on the original stones and in the 3-D image. \n\nThe lateral edges of the stone are decorated with borders consisting of two parallel grooves. Remains of these grooves are preserved on five of the nine fragments, making a reconstruction of the monument possible. On the fragment from the top right corner, a small remnant of a large roundel with a whorl motif can be seen, its frame in the form of a double line and the corona consisting of raised circles between which the spaces have been carved. Small parts of three raised and two carved half-moon fields are preserved in the roundel. Larsen reconstructs a diameter of the roundel of 54 cm based on a 3-D model (2009, p. 20–21, fig. 14). The same fragment also shows a small part of the upper border, whose ornament can be described as consisting of two horizontally mirrored running spiral patterns. In the spandrel between the large whorl roundel and the upper border, a creature with a serpentine body is placed whose tail curls in at the end. The body is lined with a dense row of short lines, probably indicating some kind of hairiness. The beast opens its mouth and sticks out its (equally hairy) tongue. In addition, the serpentine creature is provided with front and rear extremities, making it resemble a dragon or other mythical creature. According to Larsen (2009, p. 21, fig. 14, 38), who analysed the carvings based on a 3-D model, the creature has an eye and its tail widens towards the end (a fishtail?). Two other small fragments from the head of the stone show two and one of the circles, respectively, that belong to the corona of the large roundel. A piece from the central field of the stone preserves a small part of the frame of a smaller roundel, next to which there may have been a second of this kind. The frame of the small roundel consists of a double line, from which short, very fine, and hair-like lines branch off. This very likely represents the hair of a serpentine creature that, as on other stones of this kind (see VII), once entwined the small roundel. Below this small roundel, on the same fragment, a series of five small carved circles can be seen on a horizontal line. Most probably this is the roof of a cabin or tent on a rowing boat that has not survived, as depicted on the Type A stones GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV, GP 428 Stenkyrka kyrka 46, GP 43 Bro kyrka I, GP 556 Väskinde Björkome I. The meaning of these round elements on the roofs of the cabins on these picture stones remains unclear. They could be some kind of decoration, shields or, if the cabin is a kind of a tent, rolled-up tent panels. \n\nIn his book, however, Lindqvist, as he could not yet take the finds from Sanda and Stenkyrka into account at that time, preferred a different interpretation of the row of circles in the middle part of the monument (1941/42 II, p. 74): “Of interest is the close row of roundels with chiselled bases, which exclusively occurs on Ire IV and probably was meant to form the lower limit of the image panel. Generally, it can be stated that this border is equivalent to that surrounding the great roundel of the same stone. In one case, the circular fields themselves were chiselled, in the other, (most of) their surroundings.” For this reason, Lindqvist’s reconstruction of the stone did not include enough space below the row of circles. He corrected this error in a later contribution and included more space for a rowing boat, thus arriving at an approximate total height of the original monument of 2.40 m, instead of 2.20 m as had to be assumed based on his older reconstruction (Lindqvist 1956, p. 25–26). \n\nInvestigations based on 3-D digitisation have shown that on the fragment of the upper left corner, the remains of a quadruped facing to the right, presumably a horse (as on other type stones, such as GP 554 Väskinde kyrka 5, GP 99 Garda kyrka 3, GP 198 Hellvi Ire 7, GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I, GP 410 Stenkyrka kyrka 21) could be preserved, which were not coloured by Lindqvist. If this is true, which is not entirely certain, then it would be unlikely that the fragment belongs to the same monument as the other fragments. The fact that two different motifs (horse and sea creature) are juxtaposed in the two spandrels between the roundel and the border would in any case be unique.

In addition, there seems to be a relationship with the giant snakes from GP 173 Hangvar Austers I and GP 269 Martebo kyrka 2, which apparently are also hairy. Here, too, the small extensions on the snake’s body can hardly be interpreted as tiny centipede-like legs, but rather as hairs. A snake encircling a rondel with similar spiky hair is depicted on GP 44 Bro kyrka II and GP 268 Martebo kyrka I. A serpentine creature with a tuft of hair is depicted on GP 133 Hablingbo Havor II, and a serpentine creature with a shock of hair and body hair on GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I. Regarding these snake-like hybrid animals see Oehrl 2019a, p. 109, figs. 87e(1–7). \n\nThe observation that the snake creatures on the Type A picture stones sometimes appear to be hairy and occasionally even have extremities is of particular importance for a possible interpretation. All in all, it becomes clear that we are dealing less with snakes than with hybrid creatures that combine snake and mammal characteristics. Comparable beasts are frequently encountered in Roman art, for example in the form of sea monsters (ketoi). As a matter of fact, the hairy giant worm on GP 269 Martebo kyrka 2 features a fish tail, clearly indicating a sea monster. A particularly clear indication of the Mediterranean origin of these creatures is provided, however, by the bearded snake in the spandrel at the top left of GP 44 Bro kyrka II. Other sea creatures of Mediterranean origin that are descended from dolphins or resemble seahorses can be found on GP 263 Lärbro Pavals and GP 506 Tingstäde kyrka XVII. That these are to be understood as reminiscences of Roman depictions of dolphins, ketoi and other sea creatures, for which three-part tails are quite characteristic, can hardly be overlooked (Lindqvist 1941/42 I, p. 89; II, pp. 91–92; Holmqvist 1952a; Hauck 1983a, pp. 547, 551). \n\nLarsen (2009, pp. 39–40) compares the creature depicted on Hellvi Ire IV and its relatives on the above-mentioned stones Bro kyrka II, Martebo kyrka 2, and Hangvar Austers I with images of crocodiles on Roman coins from the period between BC 27 and AD 14.

The surviving fragment was brought to SHM in 1920” (Lindqvist 1941/41 II, p. 91). Possibly, the slabs which have been reused as stair treads represent further fragments of this picture stone. As a matter of fact, the inventory book notes a tall picture stone fragment reused as step on Nors gård (RAÄ no. 547). In Lamm’s list, however, this very fragment (RAÄ no. 547) appears to be listed under the farm name ʻUppegårdaʼ (GP 264 Lärbro Uppegårda/Nors).

Arrhenius/Holmqvist 1960, pp. 178–179). Arrhenius and Holmqvist do also consider Coptic parallels (ibid. pp. 189–190, fig. 9).

During the 13th century, today’s large rectangular choir with sacristy was completed, and around 1300 the new Gothic nave. Consequently, only the tower and a few stones of an animal frieze in the south side of the nave are preserved from the early stone church; the foundation of the Romanesque nave was confirmed during excavations in 2001. Under the nave of the church, in addition to medieval and modern burials, some grave finds from the 11th century were recovered; they belong to the group of kyrkogårdsfynden (ʻchurchyard findsʼ). A dress pin from the 10th century found in the tower could be explained as a single find but also allows the possibility that the church was built on a pre-Christian burial ground. From the 15th century at the latest, Bro church was an important pilgrimage and sacrificial church, which kept a Holy Cross relic (Lundmark 1929, pp. 254–256; Stolt 2007, pp. 12–14; Pernler 2013, p. 92). According to popular tradition, there was a healing spring next to or even inside the church (in the sacristy) as late as the 18th century. This circumstance, as well as a tree trunk walled into the tower in a curious way, the root of which protrudes from the west wall, have given rise to the assumption that the church was built on a pre-Christian cult site. However, there is no compelling evidence for this (Oehrl 2016a). \n\nSo far, eleven Type A picture stones and kerbstones have been found in the church of Bro. The picture stones GP 43 Bro kyrka I (first noted by Fredrik Nordin in 1887 and published in Nordin 1903, p. 145, fig. 3) and Bro kyrka II (first noted by E. Lundmark in 1903) are clearly visible, inserted into the walls of a small chamber-like extension (penitent’s cell or inclusorium), which was added around 1300 together with the construction of the nave (Lundmark 1929, pp. 277–279; Lindqvist 1941/42 II, pp. 29–31). The extension is placed in the angle between the west wall of the nave and the old tower. The door of the chamber is on the south side, to the left of the Gothic nave doorway. Immediately to the left of the chamber door, GP 43 Bro kyrka I is set into the outer wall. The face points outwards. The fragment Bro kyrka II is located inside the chamber, in the original outer side of the southern tower wall, which also forms the northern inner side of the chamber (Lundmark 1929, p. 277). Before the chamber was built, the picture stone’s visible surface faced outwards; today it faces the interior of the chamber. It is integrated into the wall at about twice a man’s height. As a result, Bro kyrka II must have been inserted into the tower wall as early as 1214, GP 43 Bro kyrka I into the masonry of the extension only around 1300.

Lindqvist’s photo of the painted stone from 1933 and Olof Sörling’s drawing from 1917 (ATA run- och bildstenssamling) document them reliably. The rectangular fragment, representing the head of a Type A picture stone slab, preserves most (about the two right thirds) of the horizontal border on the originally slightly convex upper edge of the stone and a large central roundel with whorl decoration and corona (the latter consisting of a row of small circles that are broken on their outsides and touch each other). The decoration of the border can be described as consisting of two horizontally mirrored running spiral patterns. On the right edge, part of the vertical, slightly concave lateral decoration is preserved, which consisted of two parallel grooves. The spandrel on the upper right, which is completely preserved, shows a complete serpentine creature facing left, while its mirrored counterpart on the opposite left side features only the animal’s head. Below the central whorl motif, two more mirrored serpentine creatures facing each other are partly preserved, which surely entwined a pair of smaller roundels, of which only a tiny remnant of the one on the right is still visible. \n\nAll four serpentine creatures have wide-open mouths with outstretched tongues that bifurcate or trifurcate at the tip. The two lower snakes, which encircle the smaller roundels, are completely covered, including the head, mouth and tongue, with small protruding lines that look like hair. In fact, the left snake even has a long tuft of hair extending from the head. The mouths of the two upper creatures are also provided with such hairs. There seems to be a triangular chin beard protruding from the lower jaw of the snake’s head on the upper left, which is of particular significance (see VII). No less significant is the observation that the creature in the on the upper right has tiny, insect-like extremities (see VII). All of the above-mentioned body details can easily be verified due to the good preservation of the carvings and are included in Lindqvist’s painting, but are so tiny that they are hardly noticeable in the illustrations. Lindqvist (1941/42 II, p. 31) does not mention them at all in his description and focuses on the execution of the ornaments: \n\n“Decoration in finely-carved lines and in faintly-scratched background fields in the inner corners of the corona of the large roundel and in every other of its crescent-shaped fields. All of these latter fields are divided into triangles by a deeper zigzag line; the parallel chisel marks in the fields of each of these triangles differ in direction from those in the neighbouring triangles. Judging by the insignificant remains, the small roundel on the right appears to have had a spiral pattern. The groove defining the upper inner border is uniformly shallow and 1 cm wide. Of the same style are the central areas of the heads and bodies of the serpents. The diameter of the large roundel is 61 cm, the distance between its centre and the current (trimmed) right edge 44.5 cm.” " } ], "ai2:interpretations": [ { "type": "literal", "property_id": 285, "property_label": "Interpretation of the Imagery", "is_public": true, "@value": "The interpretation of the whorl motif with a corona is usually taken as a representation of the sun and interpreted in a cosmological and eschatological sense, and the serpentine creatures that entwine the small rondels are associated with Old Norse literary tradition but also with late Roman traditions. They also seem to belong to a cosmic context; see in detail the article on GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV. \n\nAn equivalent to the encircling serpents of Bro kyrka II with hair and legs can be seen on GP 197 Hellvi Ire IV. In addition, there seems to be a connection with the giant snakes from GP 173 Hangvar Austers I and GP 269 Martebo kyrka 2, which apparently are also hairy. Here, too, the small extensions on the snake’s body can hardly be interpreted as tiny centipede-like legs but rather as hairs. A snake encircling a roundel with similar spiky hair is depicted on GP 268 Martebo kyrka I. A serpentine creature with a tuft of hair is depicted on GP 133 Hablingbo Havor II, and a serpentine creature with a shock of hair and body hair on GP 132 Hablingbo Havor I. Regarding these snake-like hybrid animals, see Oehrl 2019a, p. 109, figs. 87e(1–7). \n\nThe observation that the snake creatures on the Type A picture stones sometimes appear to be hairy and occasionally even have extremities is of particular importance for a possible interpretation. All in all, it becomes clear that we are dealing less with snakes than with hybrid creatures that combine snake and mammal characteristics. Comparable beasts are frequently encountered in Roman art, for example in the form of sea monsters (ketoi). As a matter of fact, the giant hairy worm on GP 269 Martebo kyrka 2 features a fish tail, clearly indicating a sea monster. A particularly clear indication of the Mediterranean origin of these creatures is provided, however, by the bearded snake in the spandrel at the top left of Bro kyrka II. \n\nThe bearded (and crested) snake represents a well-known motif that appears in a variety of different contexts and media throughout the Classical world, used in Egyptian, Greek, Etruscan, and Roman iconography and literary tradition. Aelian, in his 3rd-century AD work De Natura Animalium (11.26), refers to bearded snakes and states that the beard indicates the masculinity of the snake. In research, the beard is usually interpreted as an anthropomorphic feature, the bearded serpent as a hybrid between man and animal and in particular as a serpent-shaped deity (Harrison 1903, pp. 328; Gourmelen 2012). The ancient motif of the bearded serpent is also adapted on the Migration Period gold bracteates, which belong to the same time horizon as the Type A picture stones. On the amulet IK 115 Lundeby-C the bearded serpent faces the central (emperor’s or god’s) head, thus taking the place of the bird, which is usually seen in this position on the C-bracteates. Karl Hauck (Hauck 1977b, p. 505–506; Oehrl 2010b) considers these serpents to be companion animals of the god Wodan/Óðinn, appearing alongside his ravens, and corresponding to the serpents of Asclepius. Like Asclepius, in the iconography of the gold bracteates Wodan/Óðinn is also glorified as a god of healing, according to Hauck (1977a–b; 1980c).

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 were discovered during a large-scale restoration, which was carried out in 1954/55 according to plans by the architect Rolf Bergh. The stones GP 442 Stenkyrka kyrka 50 and Stenkyrka kyrka 49, however, were found in 1983 by Beata Böttger-Niedenzu. In 1982, she 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 earliest church at this place was probably a wooden building that was replaced by a stone church in the first half of the twelfth century. The foundations of the first stone church were discovered beneath the floor of the current church, built during the thirteenth century. The tower with its portal was erected between 1280 and 1310 (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).

According to Hauck’s more detailed typology of the Type A stones (1983a, pp. 543–544), with the whorl as main motif, the ʻdwarf stoneʼ from Tingstäde belongs to the Havor-I-Typus (Typus IV).

They originated from the nave’s gable wall, the masonry of the triumphal arch, in which a hole had been broken during the construction of a chimney. In the same year, all those fragments were taken to Gotlands Museum. Lundmark (1925, p. 173) emphasises that only a few of the relevant fragments originating from the triumphal arch were transferred to Gotlands Museum, while most of them were transported to the nearby lake Tingstäde träsk. Lindqvist adds in a footnote (1941/42 II, p. 135): “In 1920, several other stones were transferred to GF that came from the same part of the roof masonry as stones Nos. XV–XIX together with the note that they represented fragments of picture stones. They were entered in the inventory sheet as No. C 4645–4658. They surely display – at least in part – trimming at their edges characteristic for the purpose they served in the masonry. I was not able, however, to find clear proof for the notion that these stones represent fragments of picture stones.” \n\nIn total, not fewer than 26 picture stones from Tingstäde church are registered in Lamm/Nylén 2003 – The stones Tingstäde kyrka I–XX were published by Lindqvist. In 1984, Beata Böttger-Niedenzu discovered GP 507–509 Tingstäde kyrka 21–23, and GP 494 Tingstäde kyrka 24. Two more stones, which are incorporated into the wall of the tower, were discovered between 1990 and 2002 (GP 497–498 Tingstäde kyrka 25–26). The first Romanesque building with a nave and an apsidal choir was erected during the 12th century. In the beginning of the 13th century, the nave was enlarged, and around the middle of the century the old choir was replaced by the present one. The Romanesque portal which today leads to the sacristy probably represents the choir portal of the 12th century church which was re-used in the new building.

In it, chiseled fields can be made out that alternately are of a triangular and an oval shape set radially. Finally, the insignificant remains of another figure survived, which probably represents the serpentine, curved frame of another roundel, presumably of the same size as the last one described here” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 137).

According to Lindqvist (1941/42 II, p. 131), it was observed by Efraim Lundmark and Gabriel Gustafson in 1913. In Lindqvist’s opinion, it is possible that the fragments Tingstäde kyrka II, GP 500 Tingstäde kyrka III, GP 501 Tingstäde kyrka IV and GP 502 Tingstäde kyrka V, which are all incorporated into the stairs of the tower, originate from one and the same monument (II, pp. 131–132) (see IX). \n\nIn total, not fewer than 26 picture stones from Tingstäde church are registered in Lamm/Nylén 2003 – The stones Tingstäde kyrka I–XX were published by Lindqvist. In 1984, Beata Böttger-Niedenzu discovered GP 507–509 Tingstäde kyrka 21–23, and GP 494 Tingstäde kyrka 24. Two more stones, which are incorporated into the wall of the tower, were discovered between 1990 and 2002 (GP 497–498 Tingstäde kyrka 25–26). The first Romanesque building with a nave and an apsidal choir was erected during the 12th century. In the beginning of the 13th century, the nave was enlarged, and around the middle of the century the old choir was replaced by the present one. The Romanesque portal which today leads to the sacristy probably represents the choir portal of the 12th century church which was re-used in the new building. The tower was probably built together with the new choir, i.e., around 1250, but was raised by three floors during the 14th century.

In total, not fewer than 26 picture stones from Tingstäde church are registered in Lamm/Nylén 2003 – The stones Tingstäde kyrka I–XX were published by Lindqvist. In 1984, Beata Böttger-Niedenzu discovered GP 507–509 Tingstäde kyrka 21–23, and GP 494 Tingstäde kyrka 24. Two more stones, which are incorporated into the wall of the tower, were discovered between 1990 and 2002 (GP 497–498 Tingstäde kyrka 25–26). The first Romanesque building with a nave and an apsidal choir was erected during the 12th century. In the beginning of the 13th century, the nave was enlarged, and around the middle of the century the old choir was replaced by the present one. The Romanesque portal which today leads to the sacristy probably represents the choir portal of the 12th century church which was re-used in the new building. The tower was probably built together with the new choir, i.e., around 1250, but was raised by three floors during the 14th century.

Lengthwise, this narrow side was concave.” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, p. 132). Parts of the preserved carvings are heavily weathered or damaged.

The two grooves running along the chamfer, every second of the crescent fields forming the inside of the roundel (about 86 cm in diameter), and the spandrels of the roundel’s corona are chiselled. The roundel’s double contours and the few discernible remains of the lower limits of the picture stone’s upper horizontal border, as well as the band pattern in this border are executed exclusively with lines.” A drawing by Sörling reproduced in Lindqvist’s book (II, fig. 541) is the only published illustration of the stone. According to Lindqvist (II, p. 132), it was made based on calculations and measurements by Fredrik Nordin and a sketch by Gabriel Gustafson, and hardly represents the whole size of the fragment. Almost nothing of the band pattern mentioned by Lindqvist can be seen in the drawing. New investigations on the original and on the basis of 3D models could not confirm this pattern either. In any case, the drawing suggesting two lines as the lower edge of the horizontal border and a third vertical line of the lateral border does not seem to be entirely correct. A short third line running parallel to the lateral border line is indeed present, but it is much thinner and weaker. Whether it is perhaps to be interpreted as the spear of a warrior figure in the spandrel remains speculative, however.

In the 7-cm-wide framing borders, a stylised tendril is shown, with a zigzag-shaped stem and alternately emerging ‘leaves’. At the top of the field, a large roundel can be seen, the diameter of which was approximately 56 cm, and below it, two smaller roundels with a diameter of 22 cm and 19 cm, respectively, that both feature spiral decorations. They are connected by an s-shaped band. At the bottom, there is a watercraft that is defined only by a line for the railing, which strongly curves upward at both ends, five oars, two steering oars, and the contours of a high ‘cabin’.” \n\nIn “Gotlands Bildsteine” Lindqvist provides a drawing of the stone by Olof Sörling from 1911 (ibid. fig. 562; ATA run- och bildstenssamling 2440:23), a photograph of the untreated surface and a photograph of the stone painted with black paint (I, figs. 7, 10; taken in 1933 and 1937, ATA run- och bildstenssamling B3:89, 1718:18). Sörling’s drawing essentially matches Lindqvist’s painting, but the oars and rudder of the boat are clearly shorter and the roof of the ʻcabinʼ is only rudimentarily depicted. Also, on the photo of the unpainted stone, the pictorial details identified by Lindqvist are mostly comprehensible. \n\nThe stone belongs to the group of monuments that Karl Hauck in the 1950s re-analysed on the basis of latex impressions (detailed information on these studies and their evaluation, including all relevant literature and images: Oehrl 2019a, pp. 68–84, 286–287 and passim; regarding the Björkome stone, see pp. 152–154, figs. 135a–141b). Hauck sees in the ribbon winding around the two small rondels a snake turning with its mouth wide open towards a rider with shield and flag lance. In Hauck’s view, the boat is equipped with an animal head and a rolled-in stem; its hull, which Lindqvist only hints at by a railing line, can be seen in full in Hauck’s drawing (ibid. fig. 40c), in the form of several planks. The crew at the oars and rudders is also depicted, and on the roof of the cabin are four more men with round shields and flag lances. A spear with a large-barbed tip flies into the picture from the left, crosses the rolled-up sternpost and hovers over the stern. \n\nAs with most of Hauck’s new interpretations of picture stones, the essential part of the results in this case, too, could not be verified on the basis of detailed examination of the stone surface with the RTI method and with the aid of 3D models, or could even be proven wrong. However, Hauck is correct about some constructional details of the rowing boat (ibid. fig. 141b). Indeed, with the digital examination methods, parts of a hull can be detected, in the form of small remnants of the plank lines in the stern area. The same applies to the ring-shaped formations on the roof of the cabin, which Hauck interprets as shields. In fact, four very faint roundish structures can be seen at this point, especially above the right edge of the roof, which become much less distinct towards the left, but in their entirety appear quite uniform and intentional (ibid. figs. 138a–b, 139a–141b). Such a ring-shaped ornamentation of the roof is undoubtedly depicted on the Type A stones GP 350 Sanda kyrka IV, GP 197 Hellvi Ire IV, GP 428 Stenkyrka kyrka 46, and GP 43 Bro kyrka I. The snake’s head drawn by Hauck can also be made quite plausible based on 3D models.

It is also uncertain whether it is actually a chamber-like structure or rather a tent (Lindqvist 1941/1942 I, p. 62; Müller-Wille et al. 1978, p. 277), a canopy or perhaps a sun-roof (Althaus 1993, p. 10). Tent constructions on deck, in which the crew could sleep during longer voyages, are later recorded in the Icelandic sǫgur (Falk 1912, pp. 10–13). On the Type A picture stones, it could be a rather small tent, presumably for the laying out of a dead person (Ellmers 1986, p. 350). Such a “tent that was on the ship” is mentioned by the Arab diplomat Ahmad Ibn Faḍlān in his report on the burial of a Varangian prince on the Volga in 922 (Togan 1966, pp. 88–90). In a later addition, this construction is described as a kind of canopy: “[...] in the middle of the ship they set up a dome of wood, and that dome they cover with various kinds of cloth” (ibid. pp. 92–93). Such a covering of cloth could also be present in the case of the picture stones. Massive wooden burial chambers with gable roofs for the burial of the dead on deck have survived in some Vendel and Viking Age boat graves (Ellmers 1986, p. 350). In particular, the tent-shaped chamber in the prominent Anglo-Saxon royal tomb at Sutton Hoo, whose boat (Carver 2005, p. 181, figs. 85, 87) corresponds quite well to that of the picture stones, should be mentioned. The rings on the roof of the picture stone boats could simply be decoration, in the case of a massive roof they could be strung shields or perhaps supersized gold rings, which are supposed to represent the wealth of the burial (Oehrl 2019a, p. 154). However, it is also conceivable that we are dealing with rolled-up tent panels.

In the Martebotypus, a serpent encircles the small disks, and the border decoration is more elaborate, consisting of a geometrized tendril.
