Anna P. Judson deposited Palaeography, administration, and scribal training: a case-study in the group
Archaeology on Humanities Commons 5 years, 7 months agoMore than 60 years after Michael Ventris’ decipherment of Linear B, 14 of its syllabic signs remain ‘undeciphered’: despite many proposals to assign sound-values to these signs, none has yet been officially accepted. This paper is based on part of a study investigating new approaches to these undeciphered signs: as signs which cannot yet be read…[Read more]
