Runic Alphabets and Mathematical Links to the I Ching
The history of the runic alphabets, or Futharks, is examined alongside their use in divination and magic. McIntosh highlights the work of Halvard Hartklau, who performed a mathematical analysis of runic strokes. Hartklau found a correspondence between the runes and the Chinese Bagua system, suggesting a potential common precursor civilization for both.
