About Ongunkan Gothic Manuscript Font Family


I completed the alphabet of the Gothic language in the Codex Argenteus manuscript, which took me approximately 3 months. Although there was a Unicode block assigned to the Gothic alphabet, the font caused a problem. When I added Unicode it constantly created an error. So I created a solution by removing the Unicode block from the font. These 3 fonts were created based on Latin. The manuscript is formatted in Modern thick and Modern thin. There are dozens of different spellings of letters in handwritten font.

Friends who want to change the fonts can contact me.

The Codex Argenteus (Latin for "Silver Book/Codex") is a 6th-century illuminated manuscript, originally containing part of the 4th-century translation of the Christian Bible into the Gothic language. Traditionally ascribed to the Arian bishop Wulfila, it is now established that the Gothic translation was performed by several scholars, possibly under Wulfila's supervision. Of the original 336 folios, 188 including the Speyer fragment discovered in 1970 have been preserved, containing the translation of the greater part of the four canonical gospels. A part of it is on permanent display at the Carolina Rediviva building in Uppsala, Sweden, under the name "Silverbibeln" (i.e. "The Silver Bible").

About Runic World Tamgacı

As my interest in runic scripts increased, it became imperative to make my own fonts. It was time to put all these years of hard work into flesh and blood.This foundry, with the name of runic world tamgacı, has been prepared as a platform to distribute font works 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. With new additions, the inventory of the foundry will be constantly updated and expanded. These Runic studies were made from scratch by looking at the relevant sources.
