The theory is supported by the fact that the Cyrillic alphabet almost completely replaced the Glagolitic in northeastern Bulgaria as early as the end of the tenth century, whereas the Ohrid Literary School—where Saint Clement worked—continued to use the Glagolitic until the twelfth century.
Although Cyril is almost certainly not the author of the Cyrillic alphabet, his contributions to the Glagolitic and hence to the Cyrillic alphabet are still recognised, as the latter is named after him.
Cyrillic uppercase and lowercase letter-forms are not as differentiated as in Latin typography.

 Sha
Sha (Ш, ш;) is the 25th letter of the Cyrillic alphabet.
This sound is described as a voiceless postalveolar fricative and postalveolar fricatives are the major reason why the Glagolitic and later the Cyrillic alphabet were invented because Slavic languages are rich on postalveolar fricatives and you cannot write these sounds with a simple Roman or Greek letter without diacritics.
Most letters of Cyrillic script have been derived from Greek and as there was no Greek sign for the Sha sound, Glagolitic Sha was adopted.

 Psi (Cyrillic) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Psi (Ѱ, ѱ) is a letter in the early Cyrillic alphabet, derived from the Greek letter psi (Ψ, ψ).
It represents the sound /ps/, as in English naps, and was used largely in loan words from foreign languages.
Psi was eliminated from Russian orthography along with ksi, omega, and yus in the Civil Script of 1708 (Peter the Great's Grazhdanka), and has also been dropped from other secular languages.

Cyrillic alphabet and of the sound represented by it.
It is significant that from the earliest texts, there is considerable confusion between the yat and the iotated a (Cyrillic ıа).
The letter is no longer used in the standard modern orthography of any of the Slavic languages written with the Cyrillic alphabet, although it survives in liturgical and church texts written in the Russian recension of Church Slavonic, and has since 1991 found some favour in advertising.

 Ya (letter)
Ya (Я) is the 33rd and last letter of the Russian Cyrillic alphabet.
Over time, phonetic distinction between IA and Ѧ was lost, so when Peter I introduced his "civil script" in 1708, the single letter Ya (Я) was substituted for both.
As mentioned above, Я is a modern invention; it is not part of the old Cyrillic alphabet and does not exist in the Glagolitic, Greek or Latin alphabets.

 UCS generic collation locale -- rationale for Cyrillic
The order given fo the Cyrillic script in ISO 14651 are based on the same principles which are used to order the Latin script.
Although Cyrillic letters are, by convention, considered separate at level 1 of the sort, nevertheless, in order to be consisitent with the ordering of the Latin and Greek scripts in 14651, similar characters are ranked at level 1 as though they had accents at level 3.
There is a lot of literature using the Cyrillic script which would require the Old Church Slavonic ordering, and I felt that it was best (and less contentious) to stick to the layout of the prototypical Cyrillic script for ISO 14651.

Psi (upper case Ψ, lower case ψ) is the 23rd letter of the Greek alphabet and has a numeric value of 700.

 The Cyrillic Projector Code - Solved!
The Cyrillic Projector is an encrypted sculpture at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte, that was created by Washington DC artist James Sanborn in the early 1990s.
The Cyrillic Projector was originally a piece displayed in Sanborn's gallery shows in the early 1990s.
The decryption process of the Cyrillic Projector Code was a unique international project, involving the work of several different people working in parallel -- some who knew each other, and others who were unaware of each other's efforts.

 Interloping Scripts
The archaic Greek characters no longer in use in Cyrillic are still treated as Cyrillic letters, rather than unified with their Greek progenitors; at least some of them were used in normal Slavonic words, and typographically they developed differently from Standard Greek (e.g.
In most fonts, they look rather more old fashioned than normal Cyrillic; that is because most of these characters were restricted to Old Church Slavonic, which is traditionally printed in a typeface close to what was in the manuscripts, rather than modernising it (i.e.
But as I've discussed, it's not like those scripts are actually being used by Gothicists and Italicists anyway; the patrimony they're hooking up their objects of study to are Germanic and Italian—which are Latin script territory.

 Re: Abkhaz letters
a Cyrillic Q. Hm, U+0480 is the cyrillic version of koppa -- I'd expect it to appear only in byzantine words, mainly used in Orthodox Church context, just like cyrillic omega (U+0460) and cyrillic psi (U+0470).
Of course lower case q always looks like reverse p, and it is not unexpected that this would sometimes find its way into an upper case alphabet.
