Uppland Runic Inscription 605

U 605, as depicted by Mårten Aschaneus from Aske (1575-1641). The rock disappeared during the construction of a road in the 17th c. and has never been seen again.

The Uppland Runic Inscription 605 is a lost Viking Age runestone engraved in Old Norse with the Younger Futhark runic alphabet. It was located at Stäket, in Upplands Bro Municipality. The style was possibly Pr3.
