Re: Historical usage of "W" or "VV"

Yes, it uses "VV," not "W." Other languages have used that as well. However the usage of "VV" is a way more recent usage of the letters.

Historical usage of "W" or "VV"

The Oera Linda Book uses the "W." It seems to be the case that the usage of "W" or "VV" was a much more recent innovation used by languages based on the Latin script. Therefore, delegitimizing the book's authenticity. I would be interested to hear a rebuttal against this.
