My Linear A & B Blog

The Linear A eBook I published in 2011. Very dry technical reference, but hopefully will become useful as a cross-reference as it evolves. Includes facsimiles of many of the clay tablets from Hagia Triada.

The Linear B data project I'm working on.

dead and ancient languages interest me

A pithos is a large clay jar. Like so.

A polythyra is a pier-and-door partition. Like so.
