  • What an interesting read. Tbh I never paid much thought about how ancient scripts might have been deciphered and it is even more awesome than I would have anticipated.

    One thing that is not clear to me, however: The text says

    Because Linear B is a syllabary, and not an alphabet

    The text does not go into detail about how this could have been known to the researchers. Anybody got a hint for me here?
