[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb] Linear A and B were tied by various authors to "Near Eastern" cultures like the Phoenicians and Turkish cultures attesting to the fact of migrations from outside Europe and influence from outside Europe. But if it is now considered a home grown European written language then fine. But that is not where the writing of the classical Greeks originates. And the runes don't date much past 200 BC. And most writing today did not originate from Europe. So in the context of the racist book written 100 years ago, Europeans were just as savage and barbarian as anybody as they didn't have any home grown writing to speak of for most of their history and the writing that they did have came late and is a result of influence from elsewhere, most notably the "classical" languages. [/qb][/QUOTE] http://anthropology.msu.edu/anp264-ss13/2013/04/25/the-mysterious-linear-a/ Another theory is that Linear A is a descendant of Phoenician; however, while a few terms may be Semitic in origin, Linear A presents many written vowels – a direct contrast to Semitic script. Indo-Iranian is another candidate, however, the work done by Hubert La Marle to prove this connection ignored established evidence and used different script systems at will. The most widely accepted theory to date is that Linear A is somehow related to the Tyrrhenian family of languages which is pre-Indo-European and comprises of Etruscan, Rhaetic and Lemnian. However, even the most robust arguments for any of these theories is lacking and the mystery of Linear A remains. [/QB][/QUOTE]
