getting serious about RUNES - not the new world superstition - but cultural heritage
Runes from Bryggen: " a catalogue of runic inscriptions from Bergen and a searchable database of the same inscriptions.
The material was produced at the Norwegian Computing Centre for the Humanities (NCCH) at the University of Bergen.
(The NCCH has now become part of the HIT-Centre at the University of Bergen.)
The project was partly funded by the the Council for Research in the Humanities at the Norwegian Research Council from 1993 to 1995."

Sorting of inscriptions.


After computerising the B-numbers, they were sorted according to the informations from the Liest�l Archive. Basis of the sorting was my assessment of the inscriptions. As a starting point, the inscriptions were divided into eight different groups with sub-groups. For example, the group no IV had originally five sub-groups: 1. Longer Old Norse inscription. 2. Other Old Norse inscription. 3. Only an Old Norse personal name. 4. Possible Old Norse inscription. 5. Uncertain Old Norse inscription. In the course of sorting, this net turned out to be far too fine-meshed. so the final sorting turned out as follows:
I.1 no identifiable runes
I.2. capitals
I.3. personal marks
II.1 rune-like characters
II.2 traces of runes
III one or two runes
IV.1. Old Norse inscription, including inscriptions with only one personal name
IV.2 possible Old Norse inscription
V cryptic runes
VI Latin inscription
VII.1 complete fu>ork inscription
VII.2 incomplete fuVII.3 fuVIII inscription that doesn't fit into any of the groups"
