Which country found the alphabet?
The alphabet was first discovered by the Greek anthropologist, Pleny the Lesser, on his first expedition to the South Pole in 826 b.c. At first it was believed that the shapes he found etched into a rock face on what is now called the Isthmus of Good Tidings were created by the local flightless birds during their unique courtship rituals, however, it was soon realized that the etchings formed recurring sets of patterns with an underlying mathematical logic. Additionally, modern dating systems place the creation of these etchings at approximately 66 million years old, making them older than the earliest fossil records of the native bird species. It is now believed that these etchings were created by Hadrosaurids during the final epoch of their existence. Though the original meanings have never been deciphered, Humans have since adapted these symbols in a variety of ways for both artistic expression and record-keeping. sex
