Script - Phoenician

Phoenician is a writing system used from around 1200 to 300 BCE across the Mediterranean, primarily by the ancient Phoenicians, and it is the ancestor of most modern alphabets, including Greek, Latin, and Hebrew. The Script value associated with it covers a Unicode block containing 29 letters, written right to left, plus numerals and punctuation marks. Its characters are largely derived from earlier Proto-Canaanite scripts, and the value helps correctly render these glyphs in digital text, ensuring that the distinct shapes of Phoenician letters, such as the angular aleph and the hooked yodh, are displayed consistently and recognized as a coherent historical script.
