Syriac: Ancient...
"Syriac, a dialect of
Aramaic (q.v.), gained status as the
literary
language of the great intellectual capital at Edessa (modern Urfa,
Turkey). Before Edessas
development as a center of Christian
thought in the 3rd century, it had been a seat of pagan scholar-
ship. Owing to the controversy within [Christendom] which
occasioned and followed the Council of Chalcedon (451), most
Aramaic-speaking Christians adopted Syriac as a cultural and
religious language, both as a gesture of refection to Byzantium
and as insulation from the influence of Byzantine thought. Thus
Syriac became the language of a vast community of Christians.
Later the early Syriac evangelists carried it to Ceylon (in the 6th
century), and thence to China." -

"The Syriac alphabet consists of 22 consonantal
letters. Like other
Semitic writing, Syriac is read from right to left. It was origin-
ally written in Estrangelo character. After the schism in the
middle of the 5th century, Jacobite script developed among the
West Syrians, and the Nestorian script in the East Syrian, or
Nestorian Church. It was the East Syrian (Nestorian) script that
was carried by the enthusiastic Nestorian mies. through-
out Asia, and that influenced the Ancient Sogdian script of
Turkestan."--1000 Tongues, 1972 [Info only]
