Heavener Runestone

A number of runestones have been found in Oklahoma. All of them are likely of modern origin, with some of them possibly dating to the 19th century "Viking revival" or being produced by 19th-century Scandinavian settlers.

The oldest find is the "Heavener Runestone," first documented in 1923. It is the most credible candidate as being of medieval date, but it is most likely a 19th-century artifact made by a Scandinavian immigrant (possibly a Swede working at the local train depot). Two other "Heavener Runestones" are most likely not runic at all but exhibit incisions of Native American origin. Three other runestones, found in Poteau, Shawnee and Pawnee, are of modern date.

The Heavener Runestone is located in Heavener Runestone Park in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, near Heavener, Oklahoma.

The runes on the stone are ᚷᛆᛟᛗᛖᛞᚨᛐ. Most of these characters belong to the Elder Futhark , but the final "L" is reversed compared with the last "A", and the second character is a short-twig "A" from the Younger Futhark. The transcription is then gaomedal, but is generally thought that the intention is that the second character should be an elder futhark "N" (also reversed). The inscription then reads gnomedal (either "gnome valley", or a personal name "G. Nomedal").
