Uppland Runic Inscription 701 or U 701, and also known as Kynge stone, is a runestone that is now lost. It was pictured in the 17th century by Johan Hadorph and P. Helgonius, as well as Johannes Haquini Rhezelius. Richard Dybeck took up the search for the missing U 701 in 1860 but was not able to find it. It is believed that U 701 was carved by the artist who made Uppland Rune Inscription 700 and Uppland Rune Inscription 702.
