'''Futhark''' or '''fuþark''' also known as '''Runic alphabet''' is the ancient writing system ([[alphabet]]) for used for Germanic languages until the year 1700. There was an [[Elder futhark]] and a [[Younger futhark]]. The characters are called [[Runes]]. <ref>https://www.britannica.com/topic/runic-alphabet</ref>
The name futhark is derived from the first 6 characters (just like alphabet: alpha and beta) wich are F (fehu), U (uruz), þ (þurisaz), A (ansuz) R (raido) and K (kenaz).
