#Carian #alphabets were written in #Anatolia and #Egypt in 7 - 3 c. BCE. These were also derived from Archaic #Greek.

Graphic of a spread from a book with a column of text on the right and a black and white landscape image sitting across the fold. The image shows a school/workshop setting with multiple people painting large signs.

Goodness gracious me, it's actually a real book, with an introductory essay from the wonderful Morgane Côme.
