Nāgarī script - an early form of the Devanāgarī script, which is still used in modern India. It appeared around the 8th century CE as an eastern variant of the Gupta script (whereas Śāradā was the western variety). In turn it branched off into several scripts (in addition to Devanagari), such as Nandinagari, Eastern Nagari, and Tibetan, as well as influenced the Śāradā-derived Gurmukhī script.
