Ancient Runes & Glyphs

Runes have been used in Britain since the Dark Ages. When the Romans abandoned Britain around 450AD, waves of immigrants from Europe came and settled in this green and pleasant land. The Angles and Saxons from Germany, the Jutes and Norsemen (or Vikings) from Scandinavia, and then the Friesians from Holland. Other ancient writing systems that used symbols, runes or glyphs include Egyptian, Native American and Mayan writing systems. Professor Quintelle Futhark the Elder – Master of Runes, teaches about how people have used these writings them in several different ways. As an Oracle for use in divination, as amulets and charms, for rituals, magic and spells and for writing messages, inscriptions and epitaphs. Some of these runes have been responsible for the discovery of artifacts. Some believe there are still artifacts to be found – maybe even on the grounds of Eaglesclaw!
