It has also been known by names such as Greco-Bactrian, Kushan or Kushano-Bactrian.

    About

    As my interest in rune writings grew, it became inevitable for me to make my own fonts. It was time to put all these years of hard work into action. This foundry, named Runic World Tamgacı, was prepared as a platform for the distribution of font studies developed on Old European Runic inscriptions, Old Asian Runic inscriptions, Old Hungarian Runic inscriptions, Runic inscriptions found in Africa and Arabian geography, and Italic inscriptions such as Etruscan and Iberian. These fonts, which have high aesthetic design and a full list of letters, will serve as a wide source especially for academic studies and amateur researchers, including derivative letters. It will also please enthusiasts interested in this field. The inventory of the foundry will be constantly updated and expanded with new additions to the fonts of these mysterious ancient inscriptions. These Runic studies were made from scratch by looking at the relevant sources.
