The Avestan script is an alphabet developed in the Sasanian period of Persia to record the Avesta, the holy writings of Zoroastrianism. With 53 distinct characters, it allowed for precise representation of the liturgical language. Its invention ensured the preservation of the Zoroastrian religious corpus and reflects the scriptural and linguistic heritage of ancient Iran.
