Ulphilas
(Scand.)
A schoolman who made a new alphabet for the Goths in the fourth century — a union of Greek letters with the form of the runic alphabet, since which time the runes began to die out and their secret was gradually lost. (See Runes.) He translated the Bible into Gothic, preserved in the Codex Argenteus. (TG).
