'''Brahmi''' refers to the pre-modern members of the [[Brahmic family]] of scripts. The earliest inscriptions in this script have been found in [[Sri Lanka]] dating back to [[6th century BC|600-500 BC]]. More profuse inscriptions in Brahmi are the rock-cut edicts of [[Ashoka]], circac. [[3rd century BC|third century BCE]]. It is generally believed to be derived from a [[Semitic]] script, a minority position holds [[Indus script]] to be the predecessor.
