Anglo-Saxon Furthorc Rune Set

cults3d

A set of Anglo-Saxon Futhorc runes cut into stone-shaped pieces. Print results are light and feel good in the hands. Anglo-Saxon runes are runes used by the early Anglo-Saxons as an alphabet in their writing. The characters are known collectively as the futhorc (or fuþorc), from the Old English sound values of the first six runes. The futhorc was a development from the 24-character Elder Futhark. Since the futhorc runes are thought to have first been used in Frisia before the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain, they have also been called Anglo-Frisian runes.They were likely used from the 5th century onward, recording Old English and Old Frisian. Though the blank rune is not historically accurate, I have included it because some folx like to use it in their readings and I didn't want to leave them out. Check back in the coming days for other rune sets I am building for the other "futharks" as well. These can be scaled up in your slicing program to create big rune stones for use in your home, garden, workplace, etc.
