The Alphabets of various Ancient Greek Colonies.

The alphabets in the following table are from various ancient Greek colonies. They have been copied from the last pages of the books;

L. H. Jeffery, "The Local Scripts of Archaic Greece, A Study of the Origin of the Greek Alphabet and Its Development from the Eighth to the Fifth Centuries B.C., Revised Edition with Corrections and Supplement by A. W. Johnston, Oxford Monographs on Classical Archaeology, 1990 (first published 1961), and

Margherita Guarducci, "L’epigrafia greca dall origini al tardo impero", [Greek epigraphy from origins to the late empire], Libreria sello Stato, Roma, 2005 (first published 1987).

The following compares Greek characters with Hebrew and Phoenician characters.

Note the numerous Greek characters associated with each Phoenician character. This proves that Greek characters did not derive from Phoenician characters, and that Greek characters existed long before Phoenician characters. The Phoenician characters were a one off adoption of one of the early Greek alphabets.

The Greek, Hebrew, and Phoenician vowels are marked by yellow.
