This piece of folded lead was found a few years ago, when they were excavating an area where the Follo traintunnel would later be built. The uppermost runes contain most of the Greek word Tetragrammaton, which means "The four letters", and those letters are JHVH, which is short for Jahve or Jehova. It's not clear what the other runes mean. Since the piece is folded there are more runes on it that can't be seen, unless it's carefully unfolded, but it's very fragile, so it hasn't been done yet.
