About Elder Futhark

The Elder Futhark, also known as the Older Futhark, is the oldest form of the runic alphabets. It was a writing system used by Germanic peoples for Northwest Germanic dialects in the Migration Period. It was used to write Proto-Norse language, predecessor of Old Norse.

In Scandinavia it later evolved to simplified Younger Futhark.
