Bernard Thomas Mees, The Science of the Swastika, Budapest: Central European University Press, 2008, ISBN963-9776-18-1, p. 180.

Michael H. Kater, Das 'Ahnenerbe' der SS 1935–1945, Stuttgart: Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt, 1974, ISBN3-421-01623-2, 4th ed. Munich: Oldenbourg, ISBN3-486-56529-X, pp. 196–97(in German); Kater uses "the internationally respected runologist" Krause as an example of academics placing themselves under the wing of the Ahnenerbe out of a need to preserve themselves and their work after the war began.
However, Mees, p. 181, points to his own work in pre-runic ideographs and says that while he "reserv[ed] his approbation for amateur advocates of ideographic studies", he "accommodat[ed] previously amateur adherents to Wirth's theories within German academia".
