Bustrofedon

Bustrofedon - the way of writing in successive lines of text alternating from right to left, and from left to right. Used in the Greek letter for a long time in the period of differentiation of this letter from its original, the Phoenician writing, in which the letters were set from right to left. In the right-to-left lines of the bustro letter, the letters were also written in mirror image. This way of recording disappeared in the 6th century BC. Bustrofedon – sposób pisania w kolejnych wierszach tekstu na przemian od prawej do lewej, i od lewej do prawej. Stosowany w piśmie greckim przez dłuższy czas w okresie różnicowania się tego pisma od jego pierwowzoru, czyli pisma fenickiego, w którym litery stawiano od prawej do lewej. W bustrofedonie w wierszach zapisywanych od prawej do lewej litery także były zapisywane w odbiciu lustrzanym. Ten sposób zapisu zanikł w VI wieku p.n.e.
