Final proposal to encode the Cuneiform script in the SMP of the UCS
[Article]
Everson, Michael
This is a proposal to encode the Phoenician script in the international character encoding standard Unicode. This script was published in Unicode Standard version 5.0 in July 2006. The Phoenician script is an historic script, used to represent texts in Paleo-Hebrew, Archaic Phoenician, Phoenician, Early Aramaic, Late Phoenician cursive, Phoenician papyri, Siloam Hebrew, Hebrew seals, Ammonite, Moabite, and Punic. Although some scholars today use Square Hebrew to transliterate Paleo-Hebrew, the Phoenician script was included in Unicode to be able to represent the historic script directly.
