Nonsense. Sumad markings are more like the trademarks of people or clan markings, they are not an alphabet

Fun fact, trademarks can be based on scripts

I shouldn’t have used trademark but markings in general, like livestock brands

But there are many old scripts thay came to be from a process of tribal brands/symbols to official languages.. we could do the same

If it wasn't a likely script of forgotten era then how come it's found in somali caves ? And in these caves it's used somewhat as a writing system

This is misleading. Sumad were symbols often used by nomads to mark Camels usually to identify the owners of that particular animal. There's no evidence that sumad was used as an alphabet at least in the recent few centuries. There are some undeciphered inscription in some caves but I've seen no evidence to link them with the Sumad symbol. I have no idea if the symbols here are real the correspondence with latin based somali alphabet seems made up.
We need further studies especially when it comes to ancient inscriptions , but sumad were most likely just local emblems for livestock branding which is also something in use among pastoralists elsewhere in the horn of Africa
