The Paleo-Hebrew script is also known as Palaeo-Hebrew, Proto-Hebrew or Old Hebrew. It is the writing system found in Canaanite inscriptions from the region of biblical Israel and Judah. It is considered to be the script used to record the original texts of the Hebrew Bible.
The earliest known inscription in Paleo-Hebrew was found on a wall in Tel Zayit in the Beth Guvrin Valley in southern Israel in 2005.
The script is written from right to left in horizontal lines.
The Babylonians were famous for their astronomical observations and their calculations. They used a sexagesimal (base-60) positional numeral system, which they could have inherited from either the Sumerian or the Akkadian civilizations.
The numerals were written in cuneiform, using a wedge-tipped reed stylus. They marked onto soft clay tablets which would then be allowed to harden, by exposing it to sunlight, thereby creating a permanent record.
The Samaritan script is used by the Samaritans for religious writings, including the Samaritan Pentateuch, writings in Samaritan Hebrew, and for commentaries and translations in Samaritan Aramaic and occasionally Arabic.
Samaritan is a direct descendant of the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet, which was a variety of the Phoenician alphabet. The Samaritan script is written from right to left in horizontal lines.
A milestone for me! Loved doing this one and so thankful for the blessings and creativity bestowed on me. Now waiting for the official visit… 🙂
The Georgian scripts consist of three writing systems used to write the Georgian language: 1- Asomtavruli (used intensively in iconography, murals, and exterior design, especially in stone engravings) 2- Nuskhuri (principally used in hagiography) 3- Mkhedruli (the third and current Georgian script)
Although the three systems differ in appearance, all are unicase with letters sharing the same names and alphabetical order.

Proto-Sinaitic (also referred to as Sinaitic, Proto-Canaanite when found in Canaan, the North Semitic alphabet, or Early Alphabetic) is considered the earliest trace of alphabetic writing. It is the common ancestor of both the Ancient South Arabian script and the Phoenician alphabet, which led to many modern alphabets including the Greek alphabet.

The Ugaritic writing system uses a cuneiform abjad (consonantal alphabet). The script was written from left to right. Clay tablets written in Ugaritic provide the earliest evidence of both North and South Semitic orders of the alphabet.

Akkadian is an extinct East Semitic language that was spoken in ancient Mesopotamia (Akkad, Assyria, Isin, Larsa and Babylonia), from the third millennium BC until its gradual replacement by Akkadian-influenced Old Aramaic among Mesopotamians by the 8th century BC. It uses the cuneiform script.
