First contact was in 2001 when Joachim found
a suitable rune stone in his own forest. The stone was
transported to Adelsö and the work started early in spring
2002.
The family had two wishes, a sun
cross of the same type as on the
Vinland runestone
and a Icelandic horse that "tölt" because thay like horses
in general and have a stable with riding activities:
Stadsberga Västergård.
During the work I received two media
visits.
First, Bo Landin came to record a scene with several
rune carver for his film: Örnens vingar, English: Viking
Voyages: The Dragons Wings.
The next visit was from the National
Heritage Board that filmed Viking Age crafts, in my case
rune carving. |
