Wintanceastre was created by David Kerkhoff and published by Hanoded. Wintanceastre consists of 2 designs and household bundle choices. p > I am a HUGE fan of Bernard Cornwell's 'The Saxon Stories'. Ever given that a tv series has actually been made, the series of books is likewise understand as 'The Last Kingdom'. I have read them all, at break-neck speed and I can't wait on the next book!! Wintanceastre (Winchester) is based on a 10th century Latin manuscript. I have actually tried to remain near to the initial letters, however given that Latin does not have all modern-day glyphs, I found myself developing the missing ones. So, prior to you scold me for having made a font that is traditionally unreliable: it was never ever indicated to be a specific reproduction, nor would anyone want an exact reproduction, as it would be worthless for modern texts and designs.

Wintanceastre comes with an entire lot of ligatures and alternate glyphs. Utilize it for any design that needs a little 'Dark Ages' look!

Font Family:
· Wintanceastre Regular
· Wintanceastre Italic
