The Phoenicians were credited with developing the first alphabet, which was then modified by the addition of vowels, by the Greeks.

the lovely phonecians. it's where we get the word "phonetics" from. the greeks adopted the phoencian alphabet and modified it. the phoencians lived in what is now lebanon and were great merchants (their name literally means "purple people" for a dye they were famous for exporting)
