Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of the ancient Iberian alphabet used in the Iberian peninsula before the Roman conquest. The author draws on inscriptions found on coins and other artifacts to decipher this poorly understood script, which throws light on pre-Roman languages and cultures in the region. The book begins by examining the history of scholarship on Iberian writing, from early attempts to decipher it to the author's own groundbreaking work. It then provides a comprehensive catalog of known Iberian inscriptions, including detailed descriptions and images of the coins and artifacts on which they appear. Finally, the author analyzes the inscriptions to identify and interpret the sounds and meanings of the Iberian alphabet, shedding new light on the linguistic and cultural diversity of ancient Spain.
