When Roman administration and legions gradually withdrew from the outer provinces after fall of Western Empire, they created a power void filled by various groups. The dynamic Migration Period that followed is usually considered to have ended when Germanic Lombards allegedly left Central Europe were replaced Slavs. Whether or how Slavic tribes interacted, however, currently disputed. Here we report first direct archaeological find in support contact: bone fragment dated ~600 AD incised with...

This paper deals with graphophonematic and onomastic problems arising from two early English runic inscriptions. Since Pre-OE /ā̆/ /ɔ̄̆/ were apparently graphemicized as ᚪ a2 ᚩ a3 at (about) the same time during late fifth century, it is possible to identify rune no. 6 on Loveden Hill urn a variant of āc -rune ᚪ, (~ ). Thus, initial sequence there, sïþa1ba2d, renders correctly shaped male name Sīþæbad (= WFranc./Hispano-Goth. Sendebadus ). The Watchfield case fitting least 50 years...

Abstract The gold horn B from Gallehus, datable to about AD 400, bears the following runic legend: ek, Hlewagastiz Holtijaz, horna tawidō ›I, H. H., made horn‹. Proto-Nordic weak verb taujan * – a causative ›to make sth. being added together, add together‹ → make, produce‹ is unlikely have had dedicatory meaning. nominative endings in Hlewagast-iz and Holt-ijaz indicate that language of inscription ( urnordisch ), seeing regular WGmc. would be -i , -ija EGmc -s -īs . first element appears...
Abstract This paper deals with three South Germanic runic inscriptions that are highly relevant to language history. 1. The Frienstedt comb, which dates the second half of 3rd century A.D., bears four runes kaba = WGmc. ka(m)ba m. ‘comb’. nominative sg. marker -a < PGmc. * -az represents oldest attested West dialect feature (opposite PNorse , EGmc. -s ). 2. noru on a neckring found near or in Aalen (ca. 500) renders woman’s byname Nōru ‘the little one’. Final -u is best interpreted as an...
Abstract This paper deals with two runic inscriptions that are highly relevant to language history. 1. The sequences on the three Weser rune bones, which date first half of 5th century, not entirely clear. However, West Germanic (Pre-Old Saxon) linguistic features such as gemination by j ( kunni ‘kin, clan’) and loss - a < *- az hari ‘army’) obvious. By far most interesting form is preterite dede ‘did’ reflects PGmc. dai (cf. PNorse talgi ‘carved’ Nøvling fibula) opposed dǣ(d) (PNorse -da...
In Hermsheim, heute Mannheim-Seckenheim, trug eine Frau der sozialen Mittelschicht in der Mitte des 7. Jahrhunderts n. Chr. ein Brustgehange mit einer zylindrischen Kapsel. die Blechlasche, die Kapsel an einem Lederband befestigt war, waren nach Verzierung und vor Vernietung elf Runen eingeritzt worden. Gelesen werden drei Personennamen im Nominativ: Frauenname Bera, westfrankische Entsprechungen hat, und zwei Mannernamen A(n)do sowie Dudo, auch aus anderen sudgermanischen...
