The Lycian Script is an ancient writing system used by the Lycian civilization in what is now southwestern Turkey. It dates back to the 5th century BCE and is primarily found on inscriptions, tombs, and coins. The script is an alphabetic system, consisting of 29 characters that represent sounds in the Lycian language, which is part of the Luwian language family. Lycian inscriptions provide valuable insights into the culture, politics, and religion of the Lycians. The script was deciphered in the 19th century, allowing scholars to better understand the historical context of the region. Today, it remains an important subject of study for linguists and historians.
