Nuskhuri
Nuskhuri (Georgian: ნუსხური, ⴌⴓⴑⴞⴓⴐⴈ) is the second Georgian script. The name nuskhuri comes from nuskha (ნუსხა), meaning "inventory" or "schedule". Nuskhuri was soon augmented with Asomtavruli illuminated capitals in religious manuscripts. The combination is called Khutsuri (Georgian: ხუცური, Ⴞⴓⴚⴓⴐⴈ; "clerical", from khutsesi (ხუცესი "cleric"), and it was principally used in hagiography.
