Descrição: Late Antiquity saw a remarkable multiplication and spread of alphabets throughout the eastern Mediterranean and beyond. Scripts of important early Christian literature, such as the Armenian, Coptic, Ethiopic, Visigothic, Georgian, and Syriac, but also the Persian Avesta script and the Sogdian, Manichaean, and possibly Mandaic alphabets, emerged in the third to fifth centuries CE ; the Arabic, Old Nubian, Old Uyghur, and Orkhon alphabets developed in the sixth to eighth centuries CE ; Glagolitic and early Cyrillic occurred in the ninth and tenth centuries.
