The Etruscan alphabet developed from a Western variety of the Greek alphabet brought to Italy by Euboean Greeks. The earliest known inscription dates from the middle of the 6th century BC.
In this book you will learn the Archaic Etruscan alphabet used in the 7th-5th centuries BC. Also shown is the Neo-Etruscan alphabet used in the 4th-3rd centuries BC.
Most Etruscan inscriptions are written in horizontal lines from right to left, (sometimes left to right), or boustrophedon (alternating right to left and left to right).
A “Sigil” is the Latin word for “seal”, deeming something as official, real and done. Drawing symbols with an intention in mind practically means you consider your desire as manifested. Our ancestors used them to ward off evil, promote better health and for protection. The most important is that the intention one sets, must be pure and dedicated towards the universal good of others.
“Alchemy” is an area of study, sometimes considered as a science, other times as a branch of philosophy, that was practiced in Europe, Asia, and Africa. It originated primarily in Egypt, Greece, and Rome, but eventually spread as far as India, China, and England by the 12th century. Some scientists believe that alchemists helped lay the foundations for modern chemistry.

The Gondi language spoken by the Gondi people, is one of the major Dravidian languages.
Traditionally, the Gondi language was primarily spoken and transmitted orally, so there was no widely accepted script for writing it. However, various efforts have been made to develop writing systems for Gondi to promote literacy and preserve the language. Some of these efforts involve adapting the Devanagari script (used for many Indian languages, including Hindi and Marathi) to represent Gondi phonemes.
Alchemical symbols are a set of pictorial representations used in the practice of alchemy, a philosophical and proto-scientific tradition that aimed to transform base metals into noble metals (such as gold) and discover the elixir of life.
These symbols were used to encode and communicate various concepts, substances, and processes involved in alchemy. While some symbols have their origins in ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Roman civilizations, the systematic use of alchemical symbols became more prevalent during the medieval and early modern periods.
Ogham is an Early Medieval alphabet used primarily to write the early Irish language (in the “orthodox” inscriptions, 4th to 6th centuries AD), and later the Old Irish language (scholastic ogham, 6th to 9th centuries).

Kharosthi script is mostly written right to left, but some inscriptions also show the left to right direction.
