18 A DANISH RUNIC STONE FOUND IN LONDON. of Ska, the district of Fiirentuna (L 356, B 286}: Kiu- lakr: lit: raisa: stain: iftir : kvih svain sin: Kunal (KIVM'I'), which in the usual orthography would read as follows: Kjulakr let reisa stein eftir kviksvein sinn Kunal, i. e. Kjulak caused this stone to be erected after (i e. in memory of) his page Kunal. The name of Torn frequently occurred in ancient times in Denmark as w'ell as in other parts of the North. Among the warriors of Harald Hildetonn in the battle of the Field of Bravellir one Toki is mentioned in the Fragment of Skiiildunga Saga and among the many whom Saxo com- mends as very distinguished in that battle, this same uToki Jumensi provincia orlus” (probably from Jum or Jom in Pomerania} was one. Saxo as well as other historical authors, both at earlier and later periods mention several persons of this name. \ The same name does also very frequently occur in Runic inscriptions in Denmark as well as in Sweden, and in these it is some times spelt T4KI, but most frequently quite as in the stone of London, T!\KI, which in modern Danish has been transformed into Tyge (latinized Tyclw'). The variations 'NlMR. and hDKIR. are more rare. We shall here only mention three Runic stones in Sweden where this name occurs. In the parish of Angara, the district of Vallentuna, in Upland there is a stone (L 969, B 94) commemorative of one Tukir, who lost his life in Greece. In the parish of Hiigby, district of Gostring, in East Goth- land we find a stone (L 1180, B 882), which a certain tukir (read Thookir) placed here in memory of his cousin Asur, who also died in Greece. On the Kaga stone, district of Ilanckind, in East Gothland (L 1145, B 850) we read t) See the editions of this fragment (Sogubrot) by C. C. Rafn in Fornaldar Scigur NorDrlanda I, p.379 and in Anliquites Russes I, p.79.
