Abstract:

This study delves into the historical writing system of Angika, known as "Angika Lipi," with the goal of explaining its origins, development, and cultural significance. The study focuses on the delicate relationship between culture, language, and script in the Angika-speaking region by drawing on references found in ancient texts as well as modern perspectives. The study investigates the historical context in which the script emerged and the cultural identity it encapsulates, tracing back to its mention in texts such as "Lalitavistara." This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Angika script and its enduring legacy through a multidisciplinary approach that includes historical narratives and linguistic analyses.
