\ A Runestone That May Be North America’s Oldest Turns Up in a Canada Forest Researchers spent years quietly studying a stone carved with 255 runes and the image of a boat found in northern Ontario. Now, revealing the stone’s existence, they’re asking the public for help. The stone was found on private property in 2015, after the trees’ collapse exposed it again to the elements of northern Ontario. Henrik Williams spent hours under a tarp studying the runes in a cold October rain. He finally landed on a book he had seen before but never much considered: a runic guide published in 1611 by Johannes Bureus. The script was likely to have taken several weeks, and a Swede was probably responsible, Dr. Primrose said. Archaeologist Shannon Lewis-Simpson said the team was “probably right” that a 19th-century Swede had made the carving. “There’s a lot of long winter nights up there,” she said. The researchers did not immediately share news of the discovery. Uncovering the Past: A millenniums-old settlement in Michigan has archaeologists rethinking the rise of agriculture on the continent. A gory set of manuals, one dating to the 17th century, has been translated into English for the first time. The inhabitants of Carthage were long thought to have derived from Levantine Phoenicians.
