Viking inscription or offensive graffiti?


Black Monk

Recommended Posts

Archaeologists studying an ancient inscription on a remote Scottish island have been left divided over whether it is a Viking engraving after its letters spelt FURKU.AL

Experts cannot make up their minds for certain if it is a modern expletive or a carving over 1,300 years old that has by chance formed the brusque swear word.

The runic inscription was found on a stone by a resident of the Isle of Eigg off the west coast of Scotland.
