Draft:Rovas Script

Rovas script is a translation of the Hungarian "rovásírás", which is typically referring to the Old Hungarian script (Hun: székely–magyar rovásírás). However, this term is also used to describe other Eurasian runic scripts, such as the Carpathian runic script and the Eurasian runic script. Historical evidence supports that this script was used by Árpád's armies during the Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin; for example, the Homokmégy mound inscription[1] and Alsószentmihály inscription. [2] Comparison of the three rovas or Eurasian runic scripts and a summary of their history can be found on the Eurasian runic scripts page.

During the mid-20th century, it was believed that Orhoni, the Old Turkic script, deciphered by renowned Danish expert Thomsen, was the parent system of the Old Hungarian script, and this belief is still held by many international experts. However, this may have been a decision of "convenience": since the Old Turkic script was already known, it was easy to hypothesize that the Old Hungarian script was a variant. During this time, the Old Turkic script was referred to as Turkic rovas script ("türk rovásírás"). By the end of the 20th century, several new historical findings and advancements in Hungarian and international paleography made it clear that the Old Hungarian script was only indirectly linked to the Old Turkic script: they share common ancestry, mainly several phonetical scripts, as well as Turkic runes.

Turkic runes, most of which were preserved by the Old Turkic script, are not a rovas script, but every one can be found in rovas script. The origin of these runes is unknown.
