Iuan Priest's Alphabet Stone (Manx Cross 145)

Archaeology

This broken slab was found during repairs to the church in 1900. It bears a runic inscription translated as, 'Juan Priest cut these runes'. This is followed by a line giving the runic alphabet, and a third line giving the first part of the ogham alphabet, the rest apparently lost.
