Excerpt from The Alphabet, Vol. 2 of 2: An Account of the Origin and Development of Letters

From the character of the alphabet employed, the science of Greek epigraphy professes to be able to determine approximately the date and the place of origin of inscriptions. Starting with the assumption that the Greek alphabet underwent a process of orderly evolution, which lasted continuously for several centuries, a series of cautious deductions and brilliant generalizations have been drawn from a very limited number of fundamental facts.
