Utruscan

The Utruscan alphabet was invented by William D. Ward, Jr. as an alternative way of writing English using the Etruscan alphabet. It has a one-to-one mapping of the modern English alphabet with four additional symbols for consonant blends found in the ancient script. Utruscan preserves the look and character of the ancient Etruscan alphabet.
