Kolezhuthu
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Kolezhuthu is one of the oldest writing systems in South India. It was mainly used to write Malayalam language [1][2] and Tamil language[3] particularly during the former's infancy, along with Vatteluttu alphabet.[4]
Kolezhuthu, which means "line letters", in contrast with Vattezhuthu, which means "circle letters", is considered by some to also have been known as Pallava-Chola script, which eventually evolved into the Tamil script that is used for the Tamil language.[5]
Kolezhuthu belongs to the same script family as Malayanma and Vattezhuthu.[6]
