Maughold Rune and Ogham Stone, Isle of Man
Background

(March 13, 2026) Macalister reports that this stone was described in P. M. C. Kermode's book on the Manx Crosses (London , 1907). This stone dates to about the time when the last of the Viking ruled kingdoms were defeated in Ireland. The Vikings arrived in Ireland in 795 CE, initiating over two centuries of raids and settlement by Norwegian and Danish forces. They founded Ireland's first major coastal towns, including Dublin, Waterford, Cork, and Limerick, before being largely defeated at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014

The ogham is a simple letter list showing the lines in order serving as a memory aid for other writing which did not survive.

The stone is a slab of slate measuring about 1' 0."

  1. [1 or 2 letters] A Lu Bu | Pu ReYu Ṣu | Ru LeYu Ṣu Ya | Du Ya Ḫu Ru | Ru A Bu ARu

  2. E ADu ERu [E]L TaḪu | Ṣ P U G T

In English
  1. [word] is affecting the lack of nourishment. | Open the shepherd-priest's activity. | The griffon's fate is not being activated. | Don't manifest Hu's griffons. | Griffons will manifest the nourishments for the Controller (Ayu).

  2. Disabling the instigating-powers will harbor the [high-powers] of the stuffing (network) | Activate the openings and energize astrology-magic.

Comment: Shepherd-priests are the priestly class which shifts fate using astrology-magic. Line 2 is saying that inhibiting the life powers (goddess Ayu and god Hu) also inhibits the divine irrigation network which directs the life powers to earth. It ends with a plea to activate the life-power deities and energize astrology-magic to bring fertility to the land.

In English
  1. : Open Thu's activity. That energy will disable, astrology-magic's omens. Will not that reduce Su's blockages? Life-manifestations can open astrology-magic's reduction. Don't expel those. Lacking Ayu, open the covers of the community. Involve the attendants (griffons and others) in that. Is not that God (Alu)?

Comment: Newly Christianized Vikings viewed God as being equivalent to their old conception of the life power class of divine powers. Thu is the genderless deity associated with emotion magic.

This text has punctuations with a short vertical line being similar to modern colons while their colons are similar to our periods and commas with them being phrase separators.
