This 1200 CE, shield was found in Sætesdalen, Norway. It features runic inscription encircling shield's boss. These runes provide a glimpse into language and expression of people from that era.
Shield is now housed at Oslo Kulturhistorisk Museum, where it stands as a testament to rich history of Norway and enduring legacy of runic writing. Such inscriptions are not only historical records but also works of art, reflecting culture and beliefs of medieval Scandinavians.
