The Nabataean alphabet is similar to the Aramaic alphabet and served as the basis for the later Arabic alphabet. The Nabataean Unicode block includes characters for individual letters, as well as punctuation marks and ligatures (combinations of letters). The block is used primarily for academic and historical research, and for preserving the Nabataean language and culture.
