...The Greek alphabet is a set of twenty-four letters that has been used to write the Greek language since the late 9th or early 8th century BCE. It is the first and oldest alphabet in the narrow sense that it notes each vowel and consonant with a separate symbol. It is as such in continuous use to this day. The letters were also used to represent Greek numerals, beginning in the 2nd century BCE. Read full entry

How did the Romans adopt the Was the Greek alphabet

The Ancient Romans (those who first started the Roman Empire) lived in southern Italy, around where Rome is today. This part of the Italian peninsula probably did a lot of trading and fighting with its neighbor, the Greek islands. Through this interaction, cultural exchanges were made; one of which was the Cumea alphabet (a variety of the Greek alphabet). The Romans and the Greeks then became two very distinct nations, and as such, their alphabets evolved differently, even though both started out the same. That's what I'm getting via Wikipedia, but I'm not an expert in this matter. If anyone knows anything more (or different), feel free to correct me. |
