Ancient Scripts: Avestan |
 | | Avestan was an Iranian language in which the earliest Zoroastrian hymns were orally transmitted since 1500 BCE. |
| | The Avestan alphabet was modelled on the Pahlavi script, which in turn was derived from Aramaic. |
| | Due to the age of orally Avestan text, it facilitated the study of Iranian and Indic languages. |
