As Central Government gradually was established in Scandinavia , the ''ætt'' lost its relevance for commoners. For royalty and nobility, however, it remained in use as the name for ''line'' and Dynasty . Examples of clans:
In Runology , an ''aett'' is one of the three groups of eight runes of the Elder Futhark , viz., the "fehu aett" is ''fuþarkgw'', the "haglaz aett" is ''hnijïpzs'', and the "tyr aett" is ''tbemlŋdo''. SEE ALSO |
