 PHAGSPA LAMA
Phagspa (1235-1280) was a Tibetan who played a very important role in the history of Mongolia.
In 1244, as a young prince of Sakya, Phagspa, together with his brother Chanadorje, accompanied their uncle Sakya Pandita (1182-1251) as hostages to meet Godan Khan, second son of ÷g^dei.
When Khubilai Khan asked for artists and craftsmen, it was Phagspa who recommended Anige, the phenomenal Newari artist who came to Dadu in 1260 with twenty-four artisans and contributed greatly to the art of the Yuan dynasty.

Phagspa complied, and to show her appreciation for the initiation Zangmo gave Phagspa her ear-ring containing a huge pearl.
Phagspa said this was not possible because Khubilai was a king and a king would not be able to observe the vows necessary to take the initiation.
Phagspa was also a remarkable scholar who developed an elaborate Buddhist religio-political theory of world rule based on the idea of chakravartin kings, a line of benevolent Buddhist rulers whose latest representative was none other than Khubilai himself.

This accomplishment led to the nickname “Phagspa,” meaning “Exceptional.” He arrived at the Mongol court (presumably at Kharkhorum) in 1253, at the age of eighteen and was soon presented to Khubilai.
Later Phagspa reportedly sold the pearl and used the funds to put a gold roof on one of the temples at Sakya Monastery in Tibet.
Although it did not fully address all the issues raised, Khubilai and Phagspa agreed to this conciliatory compromise, and a Hevajra initiation was given to the Mongolian ruler and twenty-four of his associates.

Er war der Vizekönig von Tibet zwischen dem Tod seines Vorgängers und Onkels Sakya Pandita 1251 und seinem eigenen Tod 1270/80.
Der Streit wurde zwar bald gütlich beigelegt und der Karmapa Pakshi († 1283) lehrte noch lange, aber Phagspa und Phyag-na waren nun als Regenten Tibets unangreifbar.
Bekannt ist Phagspa auch, weil er für Kubilai eine mongolische Schrift entwickelte, die sich aber nicht nachhaltig gegen das bereits von den Uiguren übernommene Alphabet durchsetzen konnte.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the Kublai Khan asked Phagspa to design a new writing system to be used by the whole empire.
Phagspa in turn modified the traditional Tibetan script and gave birth to a new set of characters called Phagspa characters.
For the purpose of encoding in digital media, Phagspa characters are allocated a block of 56 characters from U+A840 to U+A87F, and they will be available in Unicode 4.1, scheduled to be published after April 2005.

He assigned this task to the Tibetan Buddhist lama Phagspa, who in 1269 presented the khan with a set of forty-one letters derived from the Tibetan alphabet.
Khubilai Khan made Phagspa's script the empire's official script, but rather than force the system on anyone, he allowed the Chinese and all other subjects to continue using their own writing system as well in the hope that the new script would eventually replace the old by showing its superiority.
Chinese scholars felt too attached to their own ancient language to allow themselves to be cut off from it by a new, and obviously barbarian, system of writing, and most subject people eventually abandoned the mongol writing system as soon as Mongol power waned." p.

(Phagspa has been called a seal script because both it and the Chinese seal scripts have a somewhat similar blockish appearance.) There were certainly plenty of Phagspa manuscripts in the Korean palace library, and several of Sejong's ministers knew the script well.
Although several of the basic concepts of hangul came from the Phagspa script with its origin in Indic phonology, such as the relationships of homorganic jamo and, of course, the alphabetic principle itself, Chinese Phonology also played a major role.
(Several Phagspa vowels were simple lines, like hangul, but this doesn't tell us much.) Middle Korean had vowel harmony (that is, some vowel Sounds changed into each other according to their environment), which was described in terms of yin and yang.

The Phagspa script (also square script) was an abugida designed by the Tibetan Lama Phagspa for the emperor Kublai Khan during the Yuan Dynasty in China, as a unified script for all languages within the Mongolian Empire.
The vast documentation about its use gives modern linguists many clues about the changes of the Chinese languages and other Asian languages during the period.

The traditional Mongolian alphabet is not a perfect fit for the Mongolian language, and it would be impractical to extend it to a language with a very different phonology like Chinese.
Phagspa extended his native Tibetan script to encompass Mongolian and Chinese; the result was known by several descriptive names, such as the Mongolian seal script, but today is known as the Phagspa alphabet.
This script did not receive wide acceptance and fell into disuse with the collapse of the Yuan dynasty in 1368.

The necessity for something more convenient soon appealed to the prescient and active mind of Nurhachu; accordingly, in 1599, he gave orders to two learned scholars to prepare a suitable script for his rapidly increasing subjects.
This they accomplished by basing the new script upon Mongol, which had been invented in 1269, by Baschpa, or 'Phagspa, a Tibetan lama, acting under the direction of Kublai Khan.
Baschpa had based his script upon the written language of the Ouigours, who were descendants of the Hsiung-nu, or Huns.

 Re: Transcoding Tamil in the presence of markup
It's certain that to inventors of the Korean script (King Sejong and scholars in his court), Indic scripts and Phagspa script were well known (Mongolian was one of languages taught at the nat'l foreign language school at the time and King Sejong was interested in translating Buddhist books in Sanskrit).
There are several theories about the 'origin' of the Korean scripts (what script was meant by 'åç' mentioned as the basis of the Korean script in the book explaning the principles of the script).
Others think it's influenced by other scripts known at the time(Indic and Phagspa among others have been frequently mentioned since the late 15th century).

The Chinese initial 微 represented either m or w in various dialects, and this may be reflected in the choice of ㅁ [39] plus ㅇ (from Phagspa [40]) as the elements of hangul ᇢ, for another letter composed of two elements to represent two regional pronunciations.
Finally, most of the borrowed hangul letters were simple geometric shapes, at least originally, but ㄷ d [41] always had a small lip protruding from the upper left corner, just as the Phagspa d [42] did.

However, though we cannot be sure Zanabazar ever saw works created by Anige himself, works in Anige’s Newar style certainly still held currency.
Also, we do know Zanabazar and his advisors were familiar with the history of the Mongolia Empire under Khubilai Khan and his political and religious advisor, the Tibetan Sakya hierarch Phagspa.
It is therefore highly likely Zanabazar was aware of Phagspa’s patronage of Anige and sought inspiration in the earlier Newar aesthetic.
