Summary of Content

This is a brilliant 'language'. An episode from the television program "Time Team" got me going on this one. Really clever 'graffiti' (without being rude). I think I'm going to try and learn some more about this one

Each letter is named after a tree or other plant and has a number of other associations.
Letters are linked together by a solid line, which represents the trunk of a tree, while the letters themselves represent branches or twigs.
Ogham was usually written vertically (bottom to top) in inscriptions and horizontally (left to right) in manuscripts
The Eite (feather) and Eite thuathail (reversed feather) symbols are used at the beginning and end of sentences respectively.
