A note from Jayme Finch
The Kensington Runestone, a controversial Minnesota artifact for 105 years, will be displayed at a museum in Stockholm, Sweden, beginning October 23. The Runestone is carved with runes of an ancient Scandinavian alphabet. The inscription states that Norseman were in central Minnesota in 1362. If that’s true, it would require rewriting world history and geography. If not, it means that a Swedish immigrant, Olof Ohman, pulled off a huge hoax in 1898 that continues today.
