Ancient Hungarian Rovás/Runic Writing

_The Runic Characters are written directionally from right to left,
otherwise in normal from top to bottom rows!_

Much of early Hungarian [1](Historic Coats of Arms) history was
recorded in runic writings; - carved into stone, clay, leather and
wood. Unfortunately most of it was destroyed! When _Saint Stephen,
[2](St Stephen's Crown) First Christian King of Hungary_ was
converting the Magyar people to Catholicism, he ordered all reminders,
objects and writings of the Pagan era to be destroyed throughout the
nation. This of course was to ensure the steady forward course of
religious conversion.

Very little historical evidence written in ancient Hungarian [3]Runic
writing survived. During the rule of King (Corvinus) Hunyadi Matthias
(Mátyás 1458-1490) "history and its recording" took an important role.
Renowned for his humanistic views, the King was surrounded by
scholars; he was patron of the arts and sciences. During his reign, a
magnitude of the nation's cultural contribution was exposed. From the
mid 15th century more evidence of and references to the Ancient
Hungarian Runic writing were found then previously. The Transylvanian
Hungarians (Székely Magyarok) deserve much of the credit for
safeguarding, using and keeping the Ancient Hungarian Runic Writing
alive.

The _Tatarlakai Medallion_ found in Transylvania (Erdély) by _N.
Vlassa_ an archeologist in _1961_. Results of C-14 radio-carbon
testing, carried out by the then Soviet scientific community, found
the medallion to be authentic, the clay material to be from the area
of the find and estimated the medallion to be approximately 6500 years
old. Accordingly this means that the medallion pre-dates the Sumerian
writing found in the Mesopotamian city of Uruk by one thousand years.
More scientific research is needed to support the belief of many
scholars, that the medallion originated from Magyars who were possibly
living in the area thousands of years prior to Árpád and the A.D. 896
Hungarian settlement of the Balkans, which included the _largely
dismembered [4](In Trianon) territory of present day Hungary!_

The Tatarlakai Medallion has 10 runic symbols inscribed on it. Six of
these are identical, two are very similar and only two differ from the
historic Hungarian Runic Letters (symbols).

It is the intention of some Hungarian scientists and linguists to
bring back the use of Runic writing, which could be thought to the
children in schools; possibly in heritage classes.

Linguistic evidence strongly points the Hungarian and Mesopotamian
"Sumerian Connection". For certain, Magyar people were living and
striving as a strong nation, before settling in the Balkans. Evidence
points to Magyar settlements in the area just north of Mesopotamia.
_It may have to be Hungarian historians living abroad who are willing
and able to prove the "missing link" of Hungarians. (Books of
interest; Dr. Padányi Viktor Dentu-Hungaria Printed in Buenos Aires,
Argentina)_

_The Future of Hungary lies in its Proud Past!_

If anyone finds similarities to the above Hungarian Runic letters in
existing historical documents, archeological findings or other
sources, it would be much appreciated if you would convey such
information to the writer of this page.
