Glagolitic Missal

The Glagolitic Missal is a religious book used in the medieval Slavic Orthodox Christian tradition. It contains liturgical texts, prayers, and rituals written in the Glagolitic alphabet—the oldest known Slavic script created in the 9th century. This manuscript was essential for conducting church services in Slavic-speaking regions before Cyrillic script became widespread. Its significance lies in preserving the Slavic liturgical language and culture, serving as both a religious and cultural artifact that reflects the early efforts to adapt Christianity to Slavic peoples.
