The Moksha script is an obsolete logographic writing system, used together with old Mokshan numeric system for writing the equally Moksha language before Christianization. According to the rough count, there were around 3000 characters excluding variants. Official documents were written in the script. It remained in use till beginning of the 20th century in more or less simplified form. All clans have their own clan glyphs.
