The Kensington Runestone: A Viking Relic?

Geological tests suggest age, but context is murky. If real, it rewrites Norse exploration, linking to Vinland tales. Skeptics cite local pranksters exploiting Scandinavian heritage. The stone’s cryptic text endures, a Midwest enigma of exploration. What’s your take on the runestone’s authenticity? Subscribe now!
