Description
Svenska: Förtydligande i fyra steg av detalj av runstenen Velandastenen (Vg 150, RAÄ-nr Väne-Åsaka 8:1) i Velanda i Väne-Åsaka socken i Väne härad i Trollhättans kommun i Västergötland i Sverige. Här visas inskriptionen "þur uiki" > "Þórr vigi" > "Tor vige", som är ett vikingatida sätt att be om den fornnordiska guden Tors välsignelse. Runorna är vikingatida normalrunor (den vanligaste varianten av den yngre futharken).
