Qalam
Qalams as used in calligraphy.
A qalam () is a type of pen made from a dried reed, used for Arabic calligraphy. The word derives from the Greek word ???????, meaning reed. In modern Arabic, Persian, Turkish and Kurdish, the word simply means 'pen' or 'pencil'. It is also the name of a system of Arabic transliteration, suggested in 1985. http://eserver.org/langs/qalam.txt
