Ahom Alphabet

The Ahom alphabet is a type of alphabet called an abugida that was used to write the Ahom language, an extinct Tai language spoken by the Ahom people who ruled the Brahmaputra valley in the Indian state of Assam between the 13th and the 18th centuries. The Ahom alphabet was probably derived from the Brahmi alphabet, the root of almost all the Indic and Southeast Asian abugidas. Like most abugidas, each letter has an inherent vowel of /a/. Other vowels are indicated by using diacritics, which can appear above, below, to the left, or to the right of the consonant.
