In her Plato Prehistorian: 10,000 to 5,000 B.C. Myth, Religion, Archaeology, Mary Settegast reproduces a table (above) which shows four runic character sets; a is Upper Palaeolithic (found among the cave paintings), b is Indus Valley script, c is Greek (western branch), and d is the Scandinavian runic alphabet.

The Ancient Wisdom: Origin of Writing [this kinda poor scan is one *I* did 20 or so years ago, and my online version of it died with tinypic; but of course, I feel famous. Even the caption was what I'd typed in, btw. Dunno who "ancient wisdom" is, maybe a FReeper? :^)]

(The graphic is one I scanned in the late 1990s at what was higher res back then, and it's floated around the internet and wound up on that website. Non-secure, so you'll have to visit the link to see it.)
