1857 wurde in der Gemeinde Busdorf ein Runenstein aus der Wikingerzeit entdeckt, der schnell zum Wahrzeichen der Gemeinde avancierte und auch das Gemeindewappen schmückt. Am Fundort steht heute eine Kopie. Das Original kann im Wikinger Museum Haithabu besichtigt werden. Der Runenstein von Busdorf soll an Skarthi, einen bei Haithabu gefallenen Gefolgsmann des 1014 verstorbenen Königs Sven „Gabelbart“, erinnern. Runensteine wurden in der Wikingerzeit meist als Totengedenksteine gesetzt, dienten aber auch der Anzeige von Erb- und Besitzansprüchen; Die Runenschriftzeichen wurden in der germanischsprachigen Welt ab dem 2. Jahrhundert verwendet.
