Introduction to the Phoenician alphabet: The inscription engraved on the sarcophagus of King Ahiram Ehelon unearthed in the ancient city is the oldest alphabet that has been deciphered so far. In the late Bronze Age, the Phoenicians at that time were mainly engaged in commerce and navigation, and often traveled to various places by ship to do business. When keeping accounts, they felt that the cuneiform script that was popular at the time was too complicated, and they needed a simple writing tool as a tool for recording and communicating. Based on the Egyptian alphabet, they created a script with 22 consonant letters, written from right to left. , this is the ancient Phoenician alphabet. The current Hebrew letters, Arabic letters, Greek letters, Latin letters, etc. are all derived from the Phoenician alphabet.
