northeastern Iberian script

The Nordostiberische font, also called Iberian script, is a closely related by several syllabic scripts that were used before and at the start of Roman rule in the Iberian Peninsula.

Application

The Nordostiberische font was used in the fourth to the first century BC in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula to record the language of the Iberians.

Characteristics

The characters represent partly open syllables of consonant and vowel, sometimes individual sounds. Whether they go back directly or indirectly via Greek letters on Phoenician models is unclear. The writing was predominantly written from left to right. There is an older version ( 4th and 3rd century), the voiced and unvoiced plosives is different, and a younger, which does not. The Nordostiberische Scripture is the most researched pre-Roman syllabic writing of the peninsula.
