Pigpen, also known as Pigpen cipher, was invented as a simple substitution cipher to obscure messages and enhance privacy in communication. Its design uses symbols derived from a grid system, making it easy to learn and use while still providing a basic level of encryption. The cipher gained popularity in the 19th century, particularly among students and secret societies, for its straightforwardness and playful aesthetic.
