Ogham runes, or the tree-alphabet, were beginning to emerge as a written Celtic script at the time the Celtic world was largely over-run by the Romans - they persisted for a long time in Ireland, (influenced by Nordic runes) although Britain and Gaul adopted the Latin alphabet.
Revived in our day as a part of modern Paganism and witchcraft, (of the Magrat Garlick folklorique sort).
