Nāgarī script
(Redirected from Nagari script)
The Nāgarī script is an Indian Brahmic script that is the ancestor of Devanagari, Nandinagari and other variants, and was first used to write Prakrit and Sanskrit. The term is sometimes used as a synonym for Devanagari script.[1][2][3] It came in vogue during the first millennium CE.[4]
The Nāgarī script was in regular use by 7th century CE, and had fully evolved into Devanagari and Nandinagari scripts by about the end of first millennium of the common era.[2][5][6]
