I love this Boeotian figure of a man writing Greek letters on a folding wax tablet (Thebes, 6th/5th C BC) - this is a rare depiction of the act of writing from the Archaic Greek world. https://t.co/GvzCiuHoOd (Thank you to Kallopi Nikita to pointing this out to me.)

6: Seal stone made of green jasper, inscribed with Cretan Hieroglyphic signs (including a cat's head), 18th C BC. Cretan Hieroglyphic remains undeciphered, but is closely related to Linear A and B. #inscriptionadventcalendar #Advent #AdventCalendar2019

I saw someone post this and couldn't help sharing 😄

(Also, interesting to call it cursive.)

A nice way of envisaging relations between a large number of writing systems! Of course you could nitpick with some details, but it is a nice representation of the way writing can be picked up, changed and passed on. https://t.co/XB37E6RfJ8
