Spirit Pond runestones

Description

The Spirit Pond runestones are three stones with allegedly runic inscriptions, found at Spirit Pond in Phippsburg, Maine in 1971 by a Walter J. Elliott, Jr., a carpenter born in Bath, Maine. The stones, currently housed at the Maine State Museum, are widely dismissed as a hoax or a fraud.^[1]^[2] If authentic, they would be more evidence of pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact and Norse colonization of the Americas.
