Bhaiksuki

Bhaiksuki is an ancient Indian script that was used for writing a variety of languages. The script is believed to have originated in the 5th or 6th century CE and was used until the 13th century CE. Bhaiksuki was used to write languages such as Sanskrit, Prakrit, and Pali. The script was also used to write a number of regional languages, including Hindi, Bengali, and Marathi. The Bhaiksuki script is thought to have descended from the Gupta script, which was used in the 4th and 5th centuries CE. The Bhaiksuki script is notable for its use of diacritical marks, which are used to indicate different vowel sounds. The script is also notable for its use of ligatures, which are two or more letters joined together. The Bhaiksuki script is no longer used, but it is considered to be an important part of the history of Indian writing systems.
