Ca (Indic)
Letter "Ca" in Indic scripts / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ca is the sixth consonant of Indic abugidas. In modern Indic scripts, ca is derived from the early "Ashoka" Brahmi letter , which is probably derived from the North Semitic letter tsade (reflected in the Aramaic , "ts"), with an inversion seen in several other derivatives,[1] after having gone through the Gupta letter .
