The Thirtieth Volume of the Archæologia contains, at page 40, a letter by Mr. John M. Kemble on a so-called Runic inscription, “cut in basso-relievo upon the rim of a pure copper dish, which was dug up nearly a century and a half ago, on the site of the once celebrated monastery of St. Peter” at Chertsey. Mr. Kemble's reading of the inscription (here engraved of the actual size) is GÆTEOHURÆCKO, which he divides into the two words GÆTEOH and URÆCKO. As these words offer certain difficulties, as for instance-the o final, and “the archaic character of the u for w and CK for CC,” he suggests that the dish, which he thinks may date “in its present form from the eleventh or even the twelfth century,” is a copy of one, the first carving of which “may be referred to a period little short of the foundation of the monastery itself, in other words to the close of the seventh century.”
