Gamla Turingevägen Inscriptions
The Gamla Turingevägen Inscriptions are two Viking Age memorial runic inscriptions and one image that are designated as Sö 311, Sö 312, and Sö 313 in the Rundata catalog, that are located in Södertälje, Stockholm County, Sweden, and in the historic province of Södermanland.
==Description==
These inscriptions are carved into the granite rockface along the Gamla Turingevägen, or Old Turinge Road, which was once the main road from Stockholm into southern Södermanland, and was the forerunner of the modern Göta highway. The inscription indicates that Holmfast may have had parts of the road cleared at this location in honor of his parents, with the carving of the inscription to memorialize his parents, the work, and its Christian nature. Road and bridge-building as described in the runic text is fairly common in runestones during this time period.〔 At this time, the Catholic Church sponsored the building of roads and bridges in a practice similar to the use of indulgences in return for the church's intercession for the soul of the departed.〔 pp. 490-492.〕 There are many examples of these bridge stones dated from the eleventh century, including runic inscriptions Sö 101, U 489, and U 617.〔 The inscriptions have been known since the Swedish surveys of runestones conducted in the 1600s, and were recorded as a woodcut illustration in a book published by Johan Hadorph in 1687.
The three carvings are considered to have been made contemporaneously and all made by a runemaster with the normalized name of Östen (Eysteinn in the runic text), with his signature appearing on Sö 312.
The inscriptions are known locally as the ''Holmfastristningen'' or "Holmfast carvings" after the current name of the road that passes near them.
