It was written both from left to right & right to left. It was mainly used to label items with the owner's name & was considered magical as most people were illiterate & did not understand the concept of symbols representing sounds. This also led to their use in fortune telling. Alphabet Code, Alphabet Symbols, Norse Alphabet, Alfabeto Viking, Alfabeto Morse, Different Alphabets, Ancient Symbols, Viking Symbols, Mayan Symbols
