   Hello,
   I would like to know the origin of Glagolitza, please. Thank you. AK
Dear Adriana,
 
Here are a couple of links. Check esp. the first one. It shows examples of the script, provides further links, and corrects some widespread misconceptions about Glagolitic, including a few perpetuated by various encyclopaedias (Britannica among them) after D. Diringer's influential book, The Alphabet.
