Runes are from the Germanic regions (not the Celtic regions). When the Norse invaded the Celtic regions, I'm sure they took their runes with them though. I doubt if their customs were eagerly absorbed by the Celts who were probably just a little bitter about losing.

Ogham was used in some Celtic regions.

They are drawn differently. Runes are just a primitive alphabet.

The region in which they are found.
