Often referred to as Roman type or architectural lettering, the history of Inscriptional typefaces goes all the way back to the Greek and Roman empires (and surely prior to those periods). Historically speaking, those fonts used to be hand carved in stone and light and context was very important.
Today, since we all use computers, those fonts are often digitized reproductions of the original faces used in monumental Greek and Roman carvings and can now be used for headings and script-looking documents and designs. More often than not, these typefaces come in all caps and small caps.
Here are 20 great examples of Inscriptional fonts. We hope you enjoy it!
