Pt Vesterbro an attractive new serif family from Black[Foundry]. The core design is the Poster weight. Warmer than most Didot-inspired display typefaces, its friendly, organic shapes and tilted axis lend it an inviting, jovial personality. Surprised at how well this Scottish/Garalde mashup works, the team derived a text version with the same properties. The low contrast gives Vesterbro Regular a calm yet confident look. As the weight and contrast increases, the typeface gains impact without losing its supple charm. Thanks to the multinational team at BlackFoundry, Greek and Cyrillic were added early in the development of Vesterbro.
Pleasantly readable in text sizes and attention-grabbing when used big, Vesterbro is a versatile type family for global communication. Pt Vesterbro an attractive new serif family from Black[Foundry].

The Greek alphabet postdates, the that was used for writing, by several centuries. This article concentrates on the early period, before the codification of the now-standard. The Phoenician alphabet was strictly speaking one that was consistently explicit only about consonants, though even by the 9th century BC it had developed to indicate some, mostly final, vowels. This arrangement is much less suitable for than for, and these matres lectionis, as well as several Phoenician letters which represented consonants not present in Greek, were adapted according to the principle to represent Greek vowels consistently, if not unambiguously. The Greek alphabet was developed by a Greek with first-hand experience of contemporary Phoenician script. Almost as quickly as it was established in the Greek mainland, it was rapidly re-exported, eastwards to, where a similar script was devised. It was also exported westwards with or West Greek traders, where the adapted the Greek alphabet to their own language, which eventually led to the.
Most specialists believe that the was adopted for Greek during the early 8th century BC, perhaps in. The earliest known fragmentary Greek date from this time, 770–750 BC, and they match Phoenician letter forms of c. The oldest substantial texts known to date are the and the text on the so-called, both dated to the late 8th century BC, inscriptions of personal ownership and dedications to a god. Tradition recounts that a daughter of a certain, married a Phrygian king called Midas.
This link may have facilitated the Greeks 'borrowing' their alphabet from the Phrygians because the Phrygian letter shapes are closest to the inscriptions from Aeolis. Some scholars argue for earlier dates: Naveh (1973) for the 11th century BC, Stieglitz (1981) for the 14th century, Bernal (1990) for the 18th–13th century, some for the 9th, but none of these are widely accepted. Herodotus' account [ ] According to legends recounted by, the alphabet was first introduced to Greece by a Phoenician named: The Phoenicians who came with —amongst whom were the Gephyraei—introduced into Greece, after their settlement in the country, a number of accomplishments, of which the most important was writing, an art till then, I think, unknown to the Greeks. At first they [the Phoenicians] used the same characters as all the other Phoenicians, but as time went on, and they changed their language, they also changed the shape of their letters. At that period most of the Greeks in the neighbourhood were Ionians; they were taught these letters by the Phoenicians and adopted them, with a few alterations, for their own use, continuing to refer to them as the Phoenician characters—as was only right, as the Phoenicians had introduced them.
