Thanks again for the tip. I set up a new catagory proposal for Rune Stones and see where it goes from there.

Thanks for input and the great links! I was so "in my own thought" that I didn't think about searching the wikipeda site Yes, it might be better to set up 2 more category-topics, sorry, I am so new at this Waymarking structure that I forgot it while my thoughts of my beloved stones went beserk. Is there any description to read about what you should, if possible, think about before I want to create a new category? I might have been to early to create this topic ... And how does this group moderators work, that handle the category? Is that written down anywhere? More input please, keep the good ideas coming! /Angélique

Hi. Story Stones I can't argue with the lacking of actual proof of the story being truth or just the logwriters own imagination. But there is a bit of the log charm, these stories is often written in old books about the local area and can rarely be found on the web. After writing my suggestion yesterday, I thought about those runestones that Sweden have all over the place, there you have written stories ON them and that is a really tru StoryStone. But if runestones includes into any other category, I can't figure out on my own. I have searched for the old LC that included runestones and I can't find it. Some search help there would be really nice. If RuneStones is better off by it self as an own category I can't decide on my own. For runestones and stonesettings/-circles and other similar ancient stones and buidlings, we have a website for search and show on maps (site own by the public authority that preserve our historic buidlings) but actual photographs are not included but you can read about them and see where they are located on googlemaps. Milestones in Sweden These stones have markings on them, sometimes even a little story and the year it was risen. If you search for some time (not done quickly) on the site I mentioned above, you can find information about the logged stone there. But logging a milestone should have a picture that can show the stone both the entire stone with foundation and the markings/story that is marked on it, if possible. The markings can sometimes be almost invisible to read as they are overgrown with moss, so the requirement for logging can only be, 'photo of entire stone'. Kind Regards / Angélique

Hello there. At first I wanted to have a category called "Stones with history", as I love stones with stories. After searching a lot, I found out that there are a good Category about stone cirles and similar, so I had to think again. So now I wonder if there can be category called "Milestones in Sweden". All over Sweden you find old milestones along the roads that marks an occation, old important roads or how far it is to near large city, as it was those days. These milestones are a part of Swedish history. And what about a Category called "StoryStones" that accept stones / rocks / boulders / mountains with stories only. Example, like we have a rock along a road near our home, that the story says a Giant got angry about the bell ringing at the church nearby, tried to hit it with the rock but didn't make it all the way,that's why the rock is where it is. /Angélique 50% of TheLizardKing
