Elder Futhark
Elder Futhark is thought to be the oldest version of the Runic alphabet, and was used in the parts of Europe which were home to Germanic peoples, including Scandinavia. Other versions probably developed from it. The names of the letters are shown in Common Germanic, the reconstructed ancestor of all Germanic languages.
Notes
The letter k is also called kēnaz (torch) or kanō (skiff). The meaning of the letter nameperþ is unknown.
