The Runes, what is behind these symbols?

They were considered as a bridge between the mind and the soul. They were questioned to get a direction or an answer when doubtful or worried. They might have been inspired by the Greek and Latin alphabets, but they seem to be linked to the Semitic language as well. Also called Viking Runes, Elder Futhark became a popular divination tool. There are 24 of them.
