The sequence alu (ᚨᛚᚢ) is found in numerous Elder Futhark runic inscriptions of Germanic Iron Age Scandinavia (and more rarely in early Anglo-Saxon England) between the 3rd and the 8th century. The word usually appears either alone (such as on the Elgesem runestone) or as part of an apparent formula (such as on the Lindholm "amulet" (DR 261) from Scania, Sweden). The symbols represent the runes Ansuz, Laguz, and Uruz. The origin and meaning of the word are matters of dispute, though a general agreement exists among scholars that the word represents an instance of historical runic magic or is a metaphor (or metonym) for it. It is the most common of the early runic charm words.

  • Alu è un termine germanico raffigurato su numerose iscrizioni runiche trovate in Europa centro-settentrionale, e datate tra il 200 e l'800. La parola, la più comune tra i primi termini runici, appare solitamente da sola (come sulla pietra runica di Elgesem) o come parte di quella che sembra essere una formula (come sull'amuleto di Lindholm (DR 261) ritrovato in Scania, Svezia). A volte viene abbreviato, cifrato o scritto con espansioni grammaticali. La sua origine ed il significato sono tuttora discussi, nonostante esista un certo accordo tra gli studiosi sul fatto che rappresenti un amuleto magico, o che sia una metafora (o una metonimia) dello stesso. L'uso del termine non resistette a lungo in seguito al periodo delle invasioni, probabilmente a causa della cristianizzazione dei Germani. (it)

  • Die Runen-Sequenz ALU (ᚨᛚᚢ) findet sich auf eisenzeitlichen Inschriften (besonders zwischen dem 3. und dem 8. Jahrhundert) im älteren Futhark in Skandinavien und seltener in England. Die Inschrift besteht aus den Runen Ansuz, Laguz und Urus. Das Wort erscheint entweder allein (wie auf dem Runenstein N KJ57 von Elgesem in Norwegen) oder als Teil einer Formel (wie auf dem Amulett von Lindholmen (DR 261) in Schonen in Schweden). Der Ursprung und die Bedeutung des Wortes sind strittig, obwohl unter den Gelehrten Übereinstimmung darin besteht, dass das Wort runische Magie ist oder eine Metapher dafür. Es ist der häufigste Anfang runischer Verwünschungen. (de)
