[edit] Summary

The Ancients alphabet as it appears in Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. This Image was made by Runic code, using a font he found on the internet at this location; OMniglot. He used the paint program to make up the image. I've saved this as a PNG file, optimized with pngout, and uploaded under a correct spelling.

[edit] Note

The statement in the episode "The Reckoning Part 2" that Ancient, when upside down, can spell other words, is in fact wrong.

Also, the glyphs for the letters "f" and "u" are the same due to an unintentional mistake by the graphical designer who developed the Ancient font for the Stargate shows.
