L'alfabeto brahmì (o brahami) è un'antica scrittura asiatica, che ebbe grande diffusione e che è considerata la progenitrice degli odierni alfabeti delle aree intorno alla penisola indiana; si tratterebbe probabilmente di un adattamento indiano delle scritture semitiche, penetrate in India attraverso l'impero persiano.
