Uppland Runic Inscription 100 is located in the forest where a path meets a bog near Skälby in Uppland, Sweden. It is in the style Pr4 which is part of the general Urnes style of Scandinavian animal art.

The runestone belongs to a number of runestones that were made by the influential Skålhamra family which also had runestones made at Arkils tingstad and who commissioned the Risbyle Runestones.

Latin transliteration:

: × guriþ × lit × raisa × stain × at * ulfkel × sun × sin × auk * kui * (a)... ... broþur * sin × auk × at × hulmtisi * sustur * sina ×

Old Norse transcription:

: "Gyrið let ræisa stæin at Ulfkel, sun sinn, ok Gyi ... ... broður sinn ok at Holmdisi, systur sina."

English translation:

: Gyríðr had the stone raised in memory of Ulfkell, her son, and Gýi (did?) ... ... their brother, and in memory of Holmdís, their sister.
