 As a child, whenever I saw ancient
inscriptions in the local Museum. I
would wonder, what did those inscriptions mean? Who were these people? This
book attempts to answer that question.
Within these pages are featured, archaic lithic inscriptions. Early
paleography, logophonetic, consontal, alphabetical and syllabic signs and an
overview of the cuneiform writing system between c. 34th. Century. BCE, to
the 1st, Century, BPE. An overview of
ancient writing systems from the dawn of time which focusses on the Hittites
and ancient Israel. Included is an
in-depth overview of Archaic Canaanite inscriptions interpreted by a renowned
specialist in this field. Also examples of inscriptions that contain
passages found in the Bible and their
comparison to specific Bible verses. In addition much focus is spent on
ancient writing in Middle Africa with emphasis on Meroitic paleography.
