Norway archaeologists find 'world's oldest runestone'

The flat, square block of brownish sandstone has carved scribbles, which may be the earliest example of words recorded in writing in Scandinavia, the Museum of Cultural History in Oslo said. It said it was 'among the oldest runic inscriptions ever found' and 'the oldest datable runestone in the world'.
