The alphabet system is generally credited to the Phoenician civilization, which developed a phonetic alphabet around 1050 BCE. This script consisted of 22 consonants and was designed for ease of use in trade and communication. The Phoenician alphabet significantly influenced later writing systems, including Greek and Latin, forming the basis for many modern alphabets used today.
