Beth-Luis-Nion: Celtic Ogham Font [ ] 20k

A note from the font creator: "Ogham (pronounced OH-wahm or OH-gahm) is a form of writing used by the Celtic peoples of the British Isles prior to the introduction of the Roman alphabet and Christianity. Each letter of the Ogham alphabet has the name of a tree or other plant, and each of these trees had a meaning in the Celtic religion (and possibly in the Goddess-centered religions of the Old Europeans that preceded the Celts)." More discussion on this font is included in the file.
