Description | The Soyombo alphabet was created in 1686 by the famous Mongolian monk and scholar Zanabazar. Modelled after the Lantsa-Dewanagari script, it is capable of representing Mongolian as well as Tibetan and Sanskrit. A variant of the opening symbol of the Soyombo script (a symbol which appears before the letter A) however is in wide use today. The exact proportions of the Soyombo symbol were defined in the Constitution of 1992. |
