Semitic Languages
ARAMAIC 61 of the Dead Sea. Although the ninth-century B.C. Moabite inscriptions present the earliest "Hebrew" characters of the alphabetic script, their language cannot be regarded as an Hebrew dialect. f) Edomite 7.9. Edomite, attested by a few inscriptions and seals dated from the 9th through the 4th century B.C., was the Canaanite idiom of southern Transjordan and eastern Negev. Despite our very poor knowledge of the language, palaeography and morphology reveal some specifically Edomite features. B. Aramaic 7.10. Aramaic forms a widespread linguistic group that could be clas sified also as North or East Semitic. Its earliest written attestations go back to the 9th century B.C. and some of its dialects survive until the present day. Several historical stages and contemporaneous dialects have to be distinguished. a) Early Aramaic 7.11. Early Aramaic is represented by an increasing number of inscrip tions from Syria, Assyria, North Israel, and northern Transjordan dating from the 9th through the 7th century B.C. (Fig. 11). There are no impor tant differences in the script and the spelling of the various documents, except for the Tell Fekherye statue and the Tell Halaf pedestal inscrip tion. The morphological variations point instead to the existence of several dialects that represent different levels of the evolution of the language. While the Tell Fekherye inscription (ca. 850 B.C.) seems to testify to the use of internal or "broken" plurals, the two Samalian inscriptions from Zincirli (8th century B.C.) apparently retain the case endings in the plural and have no emphatic state.

Kiraz 2019 a Functional Approach to Garshunography
Intellectual History of the Islamicate World 7 (2019) 264–277 brill.com/ihiw A Functional Approach to Garshunography A Case Study of Syro-X and X-Syriac Writing Systems George A. Kiraz Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton and Beth Mardutho: The Syriac Institute, Piscataway [email protected] Abstract It is argued here that functionalism lies at the heart of garshunographic writing systems (where one language is written in a script that is sociolinguistically associated with another language). Giving historical accounts of such systems that began as early as the eighth century, it will be demonstrated that garshunographic systems grew organ- ically because of necessity and that they offered a certain degree of simplicity rather than complexity.While the paper discusses mostly Syriac-based systems, its arguments can probably be expanded to other garshunographic systems. Keywords Garshuni – garshunography – allography – writing systems It has long been suggested that cultural identity may have been the cause for the emergence of Garshuni systems. (In the strictest sense of the term, ‘Garshuni’ refers to Arabic texts written in the Syriac script but the term’s semantics were drastically extended to other systems, sometimes ones that have little to do with Syriac—for which see below.) This paper argues for an alterna- tive origin, one that is rooted in functional theory. At its most fundamental level, Garshuni—as a system—is nothing but a tool and as such it ought to be understood with respect to the function it performs. To achieve this, one must take into consideration the social contexts—plural, as there are many—under which each Garshuni system appeared.

Manden El Yazısının Kökeni 211 ARAMÎ DİLLERİN KADÎM İRAN BETİKLERİNE BAĞLI KÖKLERİ: MANDEN EL YAZISININ KÖKENİ Charles G. Häberl Çev.: Mehmet Sait TOPRAK ÖZET Günümüz Ortadoğu‟sunda bulunan herhangi bir başka el yazısına benzemeyen Irak ve İran‟daki Mandenlerce hâlâ kullanılan yegâne bitişik elyazısı, Mandenler‟in yazılı edebiyatının sırlı ve gizli kökenlerini aydınlatmada ve belir- gin bir şekilde farklı dinsel bir gelenek olarak ortaya çıkışlarına dair bir ipucu sağlayabilir. Mandenlerin bugün bulundukları bölgelerdeki antik elyazıları ile karşılaştırıldığında, Manden el yazısının, Partlılar döneminin son zamanlarının (ve son derece belirgin bir tarzda M.S. II. yüzyılın) bir ürünü olduğu, Anado- lu‟dan ve kuzeydeki Kafkasya‟ya, oradan güneydeki Mesene (Characene)‟ye ve Elam‟a yayılan bir grup el yazısıyla çok yakın benzerliklere sahip olduğu anlaşı- lır. Ki bu el yazılarının tamamının ya bunlardan türediği ya da büyük ölçüde Part devri resmi el yazısının tesirinde kaldığı görülür. Mandenler‟in son dönem Arsaklılar‟la bağlantısı, onların kendi söylenceleri ve metinsel gelenekleriyle teyid edilmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Aramca, Partça, Manden el yazısı, ABSTRACT Iranian Scripts for Aramaic Languages: The Origin of the Mandaic Script The unique cursive script still employed by the Mandaeans of Iraq and Iran, which is unlike any other script found in the modern Middle East, may provide a clue to the obscure origins of their written literature and their emergence as a distinct religious tradition. Comparison with ancient scripts from the regions where the Mandaeans are found today indicates that the Mandaic script is a product of the late Parthian period (and more specifically the second century C.E.) and has its closest affinities with a group of scripts ranging from Anatolia and the Caucasus in the north to Characene and Elymais in the south, all of which appear to derive from or to be heavily influenced by the Parthian chancery script.The association of the Mandaeans with the later Arsacids is corroborated by their own legends and their textual tradition.

Writing Vowels in Punic: from Morphography to Phonography
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo Writing vowels in Punic: from morphography to phonography Robert Crellin University of Cambridge ABSTRACT This paper traces the employment of original Phoenician-Punic guttural graphemes, <ˀ>, <ˁ>, <h>, and <ḥ>, to represent vowel phonemes in later Punic. Three typologically distinct treatments are identified: 1) morphographic, where the grapheme <ˀ> indicates the etymological glottal stop /ˀ/ (its original function) as well as vowel morphemes without specifying their phonological character; 2) morpho-phonographic, where guttural graphemes continue to indicate etymological guttural consonants, but now both the presence of a vowel morpheme and (potentially) the vowel quality of that morpheme; and 3) phonographic, where the same set of guttural graphemes serve to denote vowel phonemes only, and do not any longer indicate guttural consonants. The threefold division is argued for on the basis of the Late Punic language written in Punic and Neopunic scripts. Despite the availability of dedicated vowel graphemes, these are not obligatorily written in any period of written Punic. It is suggested that a typologically significant path of development may be observed across these three uses of guttural graphemes, with 3) the endpoint of a development from morphography to phonography. Keywords: orthography; Phoenician-Punic; Neopunic; gutturals; script; morphography; phonography; abjad; alphabet 1. Introduction The Punic language was written for a large part of its history using a script descended from the West-Semitic scripts of the Near East of the late second and early first millennium BCE (Lehmann 2012: 14–16). It was adopted for writing both Semitic and non-Semitic languages, notably Greek.

The Mandaeans and the Question of Their Origin
ARAM, 16 (2004) 47-60 C. MÜLLER-KESSLER 47 THE MANDAEANS AND THE QUESTION OF THEIR ORIGIN CHRISTA MÜLLER-KESSLER1 (Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena) In memory of my teacher in Semitics Rudolf Macuch Browsing the Internet for the Mandaeans one comes across the website “Mandaean World”, where one can read under the logo of the Uroboros snake, the gnostic serpent encircling the world: “The origins of both the peo- ple, and of the religion are one of the continuing mysteries of Mandaean re- search.” This quotation describes exactly the difficulty by which a hundred and fifty years of scholarly discussion was led mostly within Europe concern- ing the “Mandäerfrage”. A scholarly dispute more at home in theological cir- cles or in research groups whose main interest is the study of the world reli- gions than among linguists. I have a feeling that time has come to re-open the issue of this unsolved mystery. Where would it be more appropriate than within this elected circle, whose interest is the culture, the religion, the literature, and the language of a very fascinating religious-ethnic group, the Mandaeans, a small community who has survived nearly two thousand years, fighting persecution and other calamities. Like the Jews they have stuck to their ancient rites and religious books, helping them through several waves of near extinction. Their literary works have been handed down in a surprising close tradition and might be the reason for their opportunity to overcome all kinds of external difficulties. Only our much-praised achievements of the modern world made such an ancient re- ligious sect partially leave their former homeland.
