Baybayin aka Alibata is a pre-Filipino writing system from the so-called “Philippines”. Baybayin comes from the word “baybay”, which literally means “spell”. Alibata was a term mistakenly coined by Paul Versoza in the early 1900’s when he thought the script was rooted in Arabic when it’s roots were actually related to Kavi > Sanskrit.
