Runestone M 4 carved by at least two carvers

Discovered in Attmarby in 1810, this partially preserved runestone contains an inscription featuring a plural verb.

Runinskrift M 4 is a runestone that is only partially preserved. It was discovered in Attmarby in 1810 and is now located in Attmars socken in Medelpad. The stone stands outside Attmar kyrka.

The inscription has been transliterated, normalized, and translated to nusvenska. The normalization shows a possibility of the name Ingvarr(?). The text includes the phrase for austr meðr Ing[va]ri(?) and mentions the placement of the stone.

The stone was carved by at least two carvers, as the verb markaðu is in its plural form. It was relocated from its original site in Attmarby to its current location.
