they used a thorn.
its an old english character that is 'th'.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorn_(letter)
Sort of similar to how if you read say, the Declaration of Independence, you will notice many instances where... what we would nowadays render as 's', gets rendered as a long s ( ſ ), like an f without the crossbar, sometimes in cursive, almost like the integral symbol ( ∫ ).

i am aware of the thorn. i am also aware it is not used anymore.
thank you for the links, however.

By one pretentious Internet user.

When they write Icelandic… not English.
