Glagolitic script. Oldest known Slavic alphabet according to Wikipedia.

They should revive this script. I like it more than Cyrillic.

I found it! its the Glagolitic script used in the 9th century before Cyrillic took over:

I think it's the Ge'ez script used in Ethiopian.

Doesn't look like it to me:
