RunestoneDR 120, MJy 51, known asSpentrup stone 2 and theJennum stone, is aViking Agerunestone engraved with theYounger Futhark and aThor's hammer.

The runestone was first mentioned by 18th-century scholarSøren Abildgaard, who wrote that it was found at the end of a stone bridge in the village of Jennum. It was lost for a long time until it was rediscovered in 1913, but by then it had been split into seven pieces. It was repaired and raised at the museum in the town ofRanders.^[1][2] In the 1960s it was transferred to the newMuseum Østjylland [da], during which it broke into 14 or 15 pieces; it has been restored.^[2]

The stone is granite, with a memorial inscription in the Younger Futhark in theRAK style, dated to 970-1020^[2] or to 1000–1050.^[3] The top of the stone, including part of the inscription band, is missing.^[4]

The stone shows one of several pictorial representations of Thor's hammer, following the last punctuation mark (x) at the end of the inscription on the left;^[3] it resembles a cross or hammer on the front of theKarlevi Runestone, Öl 1.^[4] Other stones with Thor's hammer includeDR 26,VG 113,Sö 86 andSö 111.^[5]
