The runic alphabets were the first written signs created by the Germanic people and used later by Norseman back in the day. The word "rune" in German means "letter" and "secret." And that is precisely why it is believed that its original meaning was - "a silent message."Elder Futhark runes have an important place in Norse mythology related to the God Odin. Runes had the function of letters and were used for writing in several Germanic languages. However, the meanings of the Elder Futhark runes were much deeper than that of the letters we know today. Each rune was a symbol of some cosmic force. Therefore, writing a runic letter meant invoking the power that the written rune symbolized.
