The Enigma of Vorėnai's Rune Stone: An Old Tie to the Iron Age Hillfort

Dig a little deeper into the enigma surrounding the rune stone's connection to the ancient Iron Age hillfort known as Vorėnai

A riddle shrouds Vorėnai, the region's oldest artifact; an Iron Age hillfort. stores a cryptic rune stone, guarded within a local museum. Yet, it's an intriguing quirk that this very stone shares the name Vorėnai. However, this small village bearing the same name - far different from the hillfort, was established much later, in the 15th century. A curious conundrum, don't you agree?
