This man appear on many, many bracteates. Very often he is riding a horse. Much of the outer part of the bracteate is gone, but the center is intact. The runes have been interpreted as "'Leek' 'alu' (ale?). 'Leek' 'alu' (ale?)". Some kind of spell ?

Ogneslav sent me this photo + of some other bracteates.
