Salaams all...The fact is ..that in any study of European Arms and Armour ...at some point in proceedings the serious research student must open the page on this particular strata of fascinating if a little brain bruising work...All European swords come from this stable... The student of Ethnographics runs into related work in Talisman blade marks, Viking, Runes, Latin, Roman, Anglo Saxon and other peculiar alphabets ....
In this thread I continue to look for the peculiar A with the funny top and vee shaped crossbar...and below here is the answer in part; Bavarian or Old German Script.
