Below is an incomplete tree of the sinitic scripts. The incompleteness of the tree is due to not solid evidence and numerous conflicting theories of certain scripts being related to the ones in the tree. Bold means that it is used today while italics means that the link between the scripts is unclear and unproven. The year of its founding is on the right, if it is the approximate date then circa or c.(about) is put. One or two regions it is used are in brackets. The ambiguity of the hiragana is due to the fact that many scholars believe that the hiragana system came from Baekje's Gugyeol system.

Nearly all the segmental scripts of the world, which are loosely described as "alphabets",[1] appear to have derived from the Proto-Sinaitic alphabet. Proto-Sinaitic first appeared in Sinai and Egyptduring the Middle Bronze Age, and was adapted from Egyptian hieroglyphs. A possibly independent alphabet, Meroitic, was also adapted from Egyptian hieroglyphs, and may therefore be a cousin to the Proto-Sinaitic family.

Descendants of the Proto-Sinaitic alphabet include the Latin alphabet, the most widespread of the world's scripts, but also include such disparate cousins as Hebrew, Arabic, runes, Ethiopic,Devanagari (Hindi) and other scripts of India, Tibetan, the native scripts of the Philippines andIndonesia, and possibly, to a limited degree, Korean hangul[2] and Cree "syllabics".[3] There are also syllabic systems derived superficially from one of these alphabets, such as Cherokee and theJapanese Sign Language syllabary.

Only a few alphabets are not graphically derived from this family of scripts, including Ol Chiki (for Santali); Zhuyin (Chinese phonics); Tāna (Maldivian); and the extinct Ogham (Old Irish) and semi-alphabetic Old Persian cuneiform scripts. Some of the other writing systems unrelated to the Proto-Sinaitic family have been recently constructed, such as N'Ko (Bambara) and Braille.[4]

Genealogy

Many of these scripts are no longer widely used for writing any language today, having evolved into or been abandoned in favor of others. Those still in use are marked in bold.

Dates are intended to show the approximate "birthdate" of a script; however in many cases (marked by 'c.') they are widely approximate, and may be off even by centuries. In several cases, the development of one script into another was a gradual process over several centuries, that is difficult to pin down with precision. Following that date, in parentheses, is the name of one or two modern countries corresponding to the region where the script was first widely used. In a few cases, a direct graphic letter-to-letter correspondence cannot be precisely established between a 'parent script' and its children, making the exact placement of some family members somewhat controversial, e.g. in the case of the Georgian alphabet.

Much of the information here was compiled from the "Ancient Scripts" and "Omniglot" websites, which do not always agree.

Footnotes

↑ Despite many of these scripts commonly being called "alphabets", the recent linguistic classifications of abugidas and semi-syllabaries are shown in Italic in the Genealogy list; the others listed are abjads or alphabets proper. ↑ Some scholars, including Gari Ledyard, believe that the core consonants of hangul were taken from the Phagspa script, with the other consonants derived from these. See origin of hangul for more complete information. ↑ Most of the consonants appear to derive from Devanagari, and the vowels from shorthand. ↑ Braille is derived from the Latin alphabetic order, but not from the shapes of the letters. ↑ Ancient Scripts: Timeline ↑ Greek alphabet (Ελληνικό αλφάβητο) ↑ Sequoyah was inspired by the Latin alphabet from looking at a Bible. He couldn't read it, but it became the basis for his script. ↑ P.E.H. Hair, Svend Holsoe and Tuchscherer believe (in different ways) there was a contact between the Cherokee and Vai speaking people who gave the script to the Vai.
