- eesmith 4y agoHuh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document says: > Documents are also distinguished from "realia", which are three-dimensional objects that would otherwise satisfy the definition of "document" because they memorialize or represent thought; documents are considered more as 2-dimensional representations. I think "realia" - a term I had never heard before - describes runestones better than "document".
