Description

The decipherment of Linear B is the most recent decipherment of an old world script, and as such it ought to provide valuable lessons to aid in the decipherment of other undeciphered Mediterranean scripts. This value should be further enhanced by the fact that Linear B was deciphered using modern linguistic techniques without the aid of a bilingual key such as was employed in the cases of Egyptian hieroglyphic and cuneiform. By studying the techniques used in the decipherment of Linear B and analysing their applicability to other undeciphered scripts, scholars may build upon the successful decipherment of Linear B and lay the groundwork for the decipherment of further undeciphered Mediterranean scripts.
