L2/20-246 Teeth and Bellies: a Proposed Model for Encoding Book Pahlavi
L2/20-246 Teeth and bellies: a proposed model for encoding Book Pahlavi Roozbeh Pournader (WhatsApp) September 7, 2020 Background In Everson 2002, a proposal was made to encode a unified Avestan and Pahlavi script in the Unicode Standard. The proposal went through several iterations, eventually leading to a separate encoding of Avestan as proposed by Everson and Pournader 2007a, in which Pahlavi was considered non-unifiable with Avestan due to its cursive joining property. The non-cursive Inscriptional Pahlavi (Everson and Pournader 2007b) and the cursive Psalter Pahlavi (Everson and Pournader 2011) were later encoded too. But Book Pahlavi, despite several attempts (see the Book Pahlavi Topical Document list at https://unicode.org/L2/ topical/bookpahlavi/), remains unencoded. Everson 2002 is peculiar among earlier proposals by proposing six Pahlavi archigraphemes, including an ear, an elbow, and a belly. I remember from conversations with Michael Everson that he intended these to be used for cases when a scribe was just copying some text without understanding the underlying letters, considering the complexity of the script and the loss of some of its nuances to later scribes. They could also be used when modern scholars wanted to represent a manuscript as written, without needing to over-analyze potentially controversial readings. Meyers 2014 takes such a graphical model to an extreme, trying to encode pieces of the writing system, most of which have some correspondence to letters, but with occasional partial letters (e.g. PARTIAL SHIN and FINAL SADHE-PARTIAL PE). Unfortunately, their proposal rejects joining properties for Book Pahlavi and insists that “[t]he joining behaviour of the final stems of the characters in Book Pahlavi is more similar to cursive variants of Latin than to Arabic”. -

They are descended from the Imperial Aramaic script used in Iran during the during the Achaemenid period (549–330 BCE), the Seleucid period (330–210 BCE) and the early Parthian period (210 BCE–224 CE). By the second century CE the Parthian script had evolved, and was used as the official script during the first part of the Sassanian period (224–651 CE). The main sources of Parthian are the inscriptions from Nisa (near present Ashgabat, Turkmenistan) and from Hecatompolis, as well as from texts in Manichean script, and a number of Sasanian multilingual inscriptions. In Pars in what is now southern Iran however the Aramaic script evolved differently, into the Inscriptional Pahlavi script, which was used regularly as a momumental script until the fifth century CE. The Psalter Pahlavi script was used in Chinese Turkestan and is so named because of its used in a fragmentary manuscript of the Psalms of David. This script itself developed (or decayed) into the ambiguous Book Pahlavi script which was replaced by the Avestan reformed script. -

Preliminary Proposal to Encode the Book Pahlavi Script in the Unicode Standard
UTC Document Register L2/13-141R Preliminary proposal to encode the Book Pahlavi script in the Unicode Standard Roozbeh Pournader, Google Inc. July 24, 2013 1. Background This is a proposal to encode the Book Pahlavi script in the Unicode Standard. Book Pahlavi was last proposed in the “Preliminary proposal to encode the Book Pahlavi script in the BMP of the UCS” (L2/07-234 = JTC1/SC2/WG2 N3294). Here is a short summary of the major differences in the character repertoire between that document and this proposal: • Characters only proposed here: an alternate form of d and a second alternate form of l (see section 7), one atomic symbol and two atomic ligatures (section 8), combining dot below (sections 3 and 6); • Characters proposed in L2/07-234 but not proposed here: ABBREVIATION TAA (representable as a character sequence, section 9), three archigraphemes (ambiguity, implementability, and multiple representation concerns, section 5), combining three dots below (no evidence of usage found), KASHIDA (unified with TATWEEL, sections 9 and 10), numbers (more information needed, section 10). 2. Introduction Book Pahlavi was the most important script used in writing the Middle Persian language.1 It probably started to be commonly used near the end of the Sassanian era (sixth century CE), evolving from the non-cursive Inscriptional Pahlavi. While the term “Book Pahlavi” refers to the script mostly surviving in books, Book Pahlavi has also been used in inscriptions, coins, pottery, and seals. Together with the alphabetic and phonetic Avestan script, the Book Pahlavi abjad is of religious importance to the Zoroastrian community, as most of their surviving religious texts have been written in one or both of the scripts. -

Book Pahlavi
ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 N3294 L2/07-234 2007-07-30 Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set International Organization for Standardization Organisation Internationale de Normalisation Международная организация по стандартизации Doc Type: Working Group Document Title: Preliminary proposal to encode the Book Pahlavi script in the BMP of the UCS Source: Michael Everson, Roozbeh Pournader, and Desmond Durkin-Meisterernst Status: Individual Contribution Action: For consideration by JTC1/SC2/WG2 and UTC Replaces: N2556 Date: 2007-07-30 1. Introduction. “Pahlavi” is a term used in two senses. As a term for language, it means Zoroastrian or Sasanian Middle Persian. As a term for writing systems. the word is used to describe the scripts used to write religious and secular Sasanian Middle Persian and closely similar material, such as epigraphic Parthian and Middle Persian. Three “Pahlavi” scripts are distinguished: Inscriptional Pahlavi, Psalter Pahlavi, and Book Pahlavi. All of these derive from Imperial Aramic. Book Pahlavi is an alphabetic script with an incomplete representation of vowels. The original Imperial Aramaic script’s development is marked by a progressive loss of differentiation of many letters. Thus the Imperial Aramaic letters Ö WAW, ç NUN, è AYIN, and ì RESH coalesced into one simple vertical stroke, in Book Pahlavi written Ñ. (In Inscriptional Pahlavi only Ö WAW, ç NUN, and ì RESH coalesce into •.) The Imperial Aramaic letters Ä ALEPH and á HET coalesced into Book Pahlavi Ä; the Imperial Aramaic letters Ç GIMEL, É DALETH, and â YODH coalesced into Book Pahlavi Ç; and (less importantly) the Imperial Aramaic letters å MEM and í QOPH coalesced into Book Pahlavi ä. -
