초록

This study analyzes the Canaanites’ inscriptions written in five different letters such as, hieroglyphs(Egyptian, Hittite), hieratic, cuneiform (Sumerian, Akkadian, western Semitic), alphabetic(local Caaanite) and linear(Aegean) and examines their trajectory. It concludes that 1) the Canaanite’s use of letters was known in a limited number of sites, mainly in city-states, during the Middle Bronze Age, but showed an increasing trend during the Late Bronze Age. Their use of letters was reduced or disappeared as Canaan society collapsed; 2) the trend in the use of letters are by and large influenced by the political environment; 3) the Canaanites created the first alphabetic letters influenced from the Egyptian hieroglyph and hieratic in more than a thousand years and they did not take them as the first inscription in the society; 4) some cities used more than one letter, but most cities preferred to use one. In terms of distribution of letters, the most widely used one was the cuneiform; 5) the letters from the civilization centers(Egyptian hieroglyph and hieratic, cuneiform) kept their positions in the main administrative, economic and diplomatic letters.
