Runes, Norway 15th C.
Germanic tribes of northern Europe were first to develop runes, but the Vikings adopted the symbols. When the Vikings traveled, they brought runes with them, leaving behind runic inscriptions. Wherever they went, Vikings turned to runes to express both the poetic ("Listen, ring-bearers, while I speak/Of the glories in war of Harald, most wealthy") and the prosaic ("Rannvieg owns this box"), inscribing them on everything from great stone monuments to common household items.
Rune called Inguz (Viking) or Ingwaz (Germanic), means:
"Where there is a will, there is a way"
