Armanen Runes - List of Runes

List of Runes

The first sixteen of von List's runes correspond to the sixteen Younger Futhark runes, with slight modifications in names (and partly mirrored shapes). The two additional runes are loosely inspired by the Anglo-Saxon Futhorc.

  1. Fa (an inverted Fe)
  2. Ur
  3. Thurs (as Anglo-Saxon Thorn) (also known as 'Dorn')
  4. Os (a mirrored Younger Futhark Os)
  5. Rit (as Reidh)
  6. Ka (as in Younger Futhark)
  7. Hagal (as Younger Futhark Hagall)
  8. Nauth (as Younger Futhark Naud) (also known as Not)
  9. Is (as in Younger Futhark)
  10. Ar (similar to short-twig Younger Futhark)
  11. Sig (as Anglo-Saxon Sigel)
  12. Tyr
  13. Bar (as Younger Futhark Bjarkan)
  14. Laf (as Younger Futhark Logr)
  15. Man (as Younger Futhark Madr); see also life rune
  16. Yr (as in Younger Futhark, but with a sound value ); see also death rune
  17. Eh (the name is from Anglo-Saxon Futhork, the shape like Younger Futhark Ar)
  18. Gibor (the name similar to Anglo-Saxon Futhork Gyfu)

There is no historical Gibor rune (the name may be based on the Anglo-Saxon Gyfu rune). Its shape is similar to that of the Wolfsangel symbol.

List associated his Gibor rune with the final stanza of the Rúnatal (stanza 165 of the Hávamál, trans. H. A. Bellows):

An eighteenth I know, / that ne'er will I tell
To maiden or wife of man,
The best is what none / but one's self doth know

Famous quotes containing the words list of and/or list:

    “Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
