Rundata.info introduction

About

Hello and welcome ​to Rundata.info website. This is a web client for ​​​Scandinavian Runic-text Data Base (SRDB). The database contains information about runic inscriptions discovered mostly in Nordic countries (Scandinavia, Iceland, Scotland, Russia, e.t.c.). This web version is based on a desktop client app known as Rundata. Despite the name of the website, the project itself has the name Rundata-net. So Rundata-net is available at web address http://www.rundata.info. Rundata-net is a close adaptation of original Rundata. Although the interface of Rundata-net is in English, the database contains a lot of textual information and location descriptions in Swedish. This means that if you do not speak ​​Swedish, then you might struggle to get all the information.

Rundata-net was created by Vadim Frolov and Sofia Pereswetoff-Morath.

Rundata.info is intended to be run in a modern browser on a desktop computer with a modern monitor/display. The horizontal resolution should be at least 1920 pixels. It might work on smartphones or smaller monitors, but it will look ugly.

The access to Rundata.info website is provided free of charge.
