Not that it's clear this will help us get any closer to a decipherment, but even without that it remains an incredible new attestation of the uses to which Linear A was put, and indeed the media which supported inscriptions. – at Ann Arbor, MI

One of the reasons we can make less of Linear A than other generally legible but undeciphered languages (like Etruscan) is the lack of continuous text -- so much of what we have is limited to spartan administrative documents. – at Ann Arbor, MI

The inscription apparently goes around all four sides, and is the longest continuous inscription we have in Linear A, which is incredibly exciting. – at Ann Arbor, MI

Below the level of the 'Fetish Shrine' was a Neopalatial cultic building -- this is where they found the ivory sceptre with Linear A (this, alas, is the only picture we have). – at Ann Arbor, MI

“Pythagoras confined himself in an underground hole and told his mother to tell people that he had died.” ἤδη γὰρ εἶδον πολλάκις Πυθαγόρας καθείρξας ἑαυτὸν ἐν ὑπογείῳ λογοποιεῖν ἐκέλευσε τὴν μητέρα ὡς ἄρα τεθνηκὼς εἴη #ScholiontoSophocles #FridayFeelings
