Ogham is a form of alphabet used in ancient times in Ireland and Britain. It consisted of various groups of parallel lines cut into the edge of a stone, with the combinations making up to either 20 or 25 letters. The lines were either slanted upwards to the right, horizontal, or downward to the right, allowing for a variety of letters to be created with just a few marks. "An Ogham" might refer to an inscription in this language.

Who sent the first letter in Medieval Times?
Biblical Epistles are letters sent during antiquity, before the medieval times. Letters continued to be sent as the Middle Ages began, and since historians cannot even agree on the decade of the beginning of the Middle Ages, it is clear that no person can be pointed to as the first to send a letter. The idea that Europe was illiterate during the Middle Ages is simply wrong. The first primary schools were opened in the East Roman Empire in 425 AD, and the primary school system operated under the Byzantine Empire until 1453. The purpose of this was to see to it that all military personnel were able to read and write. In the West, there is a record of buildings of a school in Wales, Cor Tewdws. being rebuilt in 508, after being burned down in a fire in 446. It was founded prior to 395 AD, and continued in operation until it was closed by Henry VIII. King's School in Canterbury was founded in 596 AD, and is still operating. The oldest state run school in the world, Beverley Grammar School, was founded in the year 700, in what was then Northumbria, and is now a part of Yorkshire. Please see the links below. Also, Greek and Latin speaking people were not the only literate people in the European area at the time. The people of the northeastern and northern areas of Europe had their own scripts, Ogham and Runes, and although there are doubtless a few who might say the only things written in these were inscriptions in stone, it should be pointed out that that is all that remains, because anything else would have decomposed in the damp weather of the area. No one would learn to read writing that was only a few words in stone. In the Middle East, the people who wrote down the Koran learned to write before they wrote the Koran. And throughout much of medieval Europe there were communities of Jews who traditionally educated their young to read and write.
