Atrisian scribes wrote in that script the Sayings of Uueg Tching who taught his heirs, and Uueg intended them to be a guide to his descendants. At the time of the Cold War, many inscriptions and advertising in Atrisian script could be spotted, notably on Nar Shaddaa. This means this script was already in wide galactic use as of 3653 BBY. Millennia later, by the time of the Galactic Civil War, it was most commonly used for confidential information.
