The Kalleby Runestone is an enigmatic Iron Age runestone discovered in Sweden.

It is inscribed in Proto-Norse with the Elder Futhark: Template:Quote inline. This short text has been the subject of several interpretations where þrawijan, which means "yearning", is interpreted as either a name or an epithet. The words haitinaz was mean "was named". Thus the full text is open to various interpretations, such as:

  • Yearning was imposed (on him).
  • Þrawija's (monument).
  • (I/he) was commanded/called.
  • (I/He) was promised to þrawija.

The stone is Script error: No such module "convert". tall and Script error: No such module "convert". wide, and it was part of a bridge.
