[gothic-l] Re: Kovel cursive runes? Rinnandeins runos fram Kaubaila?

[hrafnsnest]

Hails,
  The "cursive runes" on the Kovel and Dahmsdorf spearhead are 
Sarmatian "tamgas".  These have been refered to as "magical signs", 
and in fact, were incorporated into Polish heraldry until recent 
times.  This is another piece of evidence that shows a high degree of 
interaction between the Goths and Sarmatians.  Unless of course a 
Goth learned their system, or visa-versa.

Valulfr

P.S. How does one say "Skal" (Cheers) in Gotic?
