From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The present article lists all known runic inscriptions featuring a fuþark sequence. A script native to the Germanic peoples, the runes follow a unique order that is not known to be linguistically meaningful. The first six letters of this sequence, fuþark, can be found on runic inscriptions throughout the history of the script and throughout its regional use.
