Coptic script, originated around the 2nd century AD, is the writing system developed by the Copts of Egypt, mainly used to transcribe the Coptic language, a descendant of the Ancient Egyptian language. It primarily evolved from the Greek alphabet, incorporating some demotic signs. This script is primarily used by the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria in religious contexts. Regarding computer support, Unicode has designated a range for Coptic characters, making it accessible across various operating systems and platforms.
