History of the English Alphabet

For some, the history of the English alphabet may sound a bit dry. However, for those of us who enjoy feeling connected with history, it can shed light on how much has changed and how much has not.

I've found a pretty neat site that is examining the history of each letter of the English alphabet that provides some tantalizing glimpses into our history and has given me some insight into the importance of the Egyptians and the Phoenicians that I did not previously have. Check it out!

Thanks for the tip, Marina. It is a very cool site. My seven-year-old daughter prompted me to find out more information about our alphabet and numbers, and this site was perfect for our answers! I love all that history stuff.
