Cyril and Methodius were 9th-century Byzantine brothers who are credited with creating the Glagolitic alphabet, the first alphabet used to transcribe Old Church Slavonic. They played a crucial role in the spread of Christianity among the Slavic peoples and are regarded as the 'Apostles to the Slavs.' Their work laid the foundation for the development of the Cyrillic script, which became widely used in the Slavic world.
