Appendix:Old Italic script

Old Italic script
This article lists the characters of the (Ital) as defined by Unicode. Because Unicode only provides 36 characters to encode the wide variety of ancient letterforms, the charts below seek to show the proper mapping of each language's runes to the proper Unicode symbol. This table may lack information due to lack of evidence (e.g. many of the numerals may be unattested), but these materials should serve as a guide for Old Italic transcription and entry creation.

Languages encoded using this standard
In accordance with a recommendation made to the Unicode Consortium, which was accepted in Unicode 7, the Old Italic Unicode block should be used to encode the native scripts of the following languages: Not included in this proposal are Camunic, whose alphabets are erratic and under-researched, and Lemnian, which is not found on mainland Europe. The Lemnian transliteration is fairly straightforward and should be used in mainspace entries, but the Camunic encoding should be considered provisional. Also, Ligurian is not included in the below chart but should be added if reliable information may be found concerning it.
 * Etruscan
 * Faliscan
 * Gallic (interpreted here to mean Noric)
 * Lepontic
 * Ligurian
 * North Picene
 * Old Latin
 * Oscan
 * Rhetic
 * South Picene
 * Umbrian
 * Venetic

Letterforms
The standard representations of the Old Italic script defined by Unicode do not represent the wide range of shapes the glyphs may take. For a more compendious list, see Appendix:Italic script.
