mar 1, 1000 BC - Paleo-Hebrew alphabet

Description:

Paleo-Hebrew was the ancient Hebrew script used by Israelites during the monarchic period. It was closely related to Phoenician writing and was used in inscriptions, seals, ostraca, and probably early written biblical traditions.

This script is important because it represents the original visual form of ancient Hebrew before Jews later adopted the square Aramaic-style Hebrew script. It connects the language directly to the kingdoms of Israel and Judah.
