Origin of Bengali Script
The Bengali script evolved around 1200 AD. It came from the ‘Brahmi script’, which evolved from the Old Indo-Arya language of the third century. Throughout the century it mixed with different scripts and from around 1200 AD to 1400 AD it got a distinct shape of Bengali script.
