Southeast Asia has a rich variety of traditional numeral scripts, including Thai, Khmer, Balinese, Javanese, Burmese, Lao, Cham, and Sundanese.
Most developed from ancient Brahmic scripts, while others were influenced by Arabic-based writing traditions such as Jawi, Pegon, and Serang.
Seen in cultural texts, rituals, documents, and heritage spaces, these numerals reflect how the region keeps its identity alive beyond modern Arabic numbers.
