Glagolitic is an ancient Slavic script created in the 9th century by Saints Cyril and Methodius. It was designed to translate the Bible and other religious texts into the Slavic languages, making them accessible to the Slavic people. The script features unique characters that are distinct from both the Latin and Greek alphabets. The Glagolitic script played a crucial role in the development of Slavic literacy and culture. Over time, it was largely replaced by the Cyrillic alphabet, which was developed later and is still in use today in many Slavic countries. However, Glagolitic remains an important part of Slavic heritage.
