Runes were very important in the aspect of spirituality within the viking culture. Each rune held magical power, and helped to guide people seeking answers from the gods. Often times they would create bind runes to combine the magical properties of several different runes together, and these symbols were considered to be very powerful.
A bind rune is the combination of two or more Elder or Younger Futhark. Futhark simply means - the runic alphabet.
Our Viking Encampment logo is a bind rune standing for the letters V and E.
