Two early forms of the /m/ rune of the Younger Futhark. Mannaz is the conventional name of the /m/ rune ᛗ of the Elder Futhark.

Ehwaz is the reconstructed Proto-Germanic name of the Elder Futhark e rune ᛖ, meaning "horse" (cognate to Latin equus, Gaulish epos, Tocharian B yakwe, Sanskrit aśva, Avestan aspa and Old Irish ech).

Note that ᛆ also can be a variation of dotted Isaz used for /e/; e.g. in Dalecarlian runes.
