Missing in this story is the transcription of the text.
Without that, I cannot even check if it really is said prayer.

The story goes, that it was vikings around 800, who were already christian. Went there with 17 men, but only 2 or 1 remained alive. And so this survivor wrote down a prayer.
Or later...
But I keep forgetting, how much the runic script looks like fryas standskrift.
What I don't understand though, is how some letters are translated to be completely different letters, in comparison to fryas standskrift.
So many letters upside down, fryas f is supposedly an n.
Is that language confusion of the vikings, or wrong translation by us.
