U+16F0 "" Runic Belgthor Symbol is a specific glyph within the Runic block, representing a variant or additional rune often associated with the later medieval or Anglo-Saxon runic traditions, where it is thought to denote the sound value of a nasalized vowel or a voiced dental fricative. Its name, "Belgthor," suggests a connection to Old Norse or Germanic lore, possibly linked to the mythic figure Thor or a concept of "belt" or "power," though its exact historical usage remains ambiguous due to limited attestations in surviving runic inscriptions. The symbol is rarely encountered in standard runic writing and is primarily of interest to paleographers and enthusiasts of runic alphabets for its rarity and esoteric significance.
