Luigi Sperti Supervisore ch. prof. Elena Rova Dottorando Vittoria Dall’Armellina Matricola: 833665 LA RIVOLUZIONE ARISTOCRATICA Insignia dignitatis nell’Età del Bronzo, dal Caucaso meridionale all’Egeo Vittoria Dall’Armellina ABSTRACT Swords, axes, diadems, but also other types of weapons, jewels, standards in metal or in other valuable materials - such as lapis lazuli, carnelian or obsidian - contained within so-called "royal tombs” are symbolic items, bearers of noble and military values and their rapid spread documents a substantial change in Bronze Age societies. It is not too daring to call this phenomenon "Aristocratic Revolution". The birth of a new ruling elite that maintains power through military exercise can be followed in different geographical areas, in particular the Southern Caucasus, Anatolia, the Aegean Islands, Crete and mainland Greece. The insigna dignitatis are all those precious objects that accompany these rank dead even after their death. In order to understand this phenomenon, we must first of all analyse the spread of products by taking into account both the routes - including traditional transhumance roads - between the Caucasus and Anatolia, and the communication routes towards the Aegean and, subsequently, the integration of these different circuits. However, the main aim of this research is to analyse the symbolic and anthropological meaning of the different classes of materials in order to understand their value; in this way it will be possible to define more precisely the true size of this social revolution led by the new aristocratic power.

  • Gareth Owens and His Decipherment of the Phaistos Disc I Have Taken A
    Gareth Owens and His Decipherment of the Phaistos Disc I have taken a look at Owens’s website (http://www.teicrete.gr/daidalika), have read the various texts there that pertain to the Phaistos Disc, and have watched his TEDx-Talk twice. 1. First, some preliminary remarks. There are four scripts in prehistoric Crete that write at least two languages. The 4 scripts are those on the Phaistos Disc (PhD, hereafter) and on documents written in Cretan Pictographic/Hieroglyphic (CP herafter), Linear A, and Linear B (usually AB, hereafter). The languages are Greek in the Linear B documents and whatever language or languages that were written on the Disc and on the CP and Linear A documents. Linear B (ca. 1400-1200 BCE) was deciphered in 1952 (Ventris & Chadwick, Documents in Mycenaean Greek) and it records our earliest Greek texts. The script is a syllabary consisting of some 90+ signs. It is obvious that these signs were adapted from the signs in the earlier script Linear A (Godart & Olivier, Recueil des inscriptions en Linéaire A), which was in use in Crete from about 1900 to 1500 BCE. These two scripts use abstract signs, most of which do not resemble any object. Many of the Linear A signs developed from the slightly earlier CP script (ca. 1950 to 1700 BCE; Godart & Olivier, Corpus inscriptionum hieroglyphicarum Cretae), and most of these Pictographic signs are obviously schematic drawings of real objects (persons, animals like a dog head or a fly, man-made objects like an ax, and plants like a tree or branch).

Ancient Scripts of Crete: The Phaistos Disc Script – the Structure of the System ABSTRACT 1. The system of the syllabic-logographic script of the Disc of Phaistos (PhD) is analyzed in the paper. 2. The Phaistos Disc script is dated only approximately, but as the dating of the three shorter inscriptions of the same script that have also reached us is quite convincing, it is possible to say that PhD script was in use in Crete at least for about 500 years since the first quarter of the 2nd millennium. 3. The inscriptions are imprinted along the spiral line with pictographic signs on the wet clay disc with golden stamps of repeated use. Judging from the symbolic meanings of the pictographs, the inscriptions were declared to be hymns addressed to the Great Mother Goddess Rhea-Cybele or Nenana.

  • The Legendary Contribution of the Armenians in the History of Creating of the National Alphabets in the World
    The legendary contribution of the Armenians in the history of creating of the national alphabets in the world Prof. G. Vahanyan Various artifacts of tangible and intangible heritage point at the sources or carry information on the significant role of the Armenians (old Armenian civilization) in the creation of the alphabets of different nations throughout the world. Hereafter are presented the most significant of them: 1. Ideograms and hieroglyphs, that are identified in the Armenian Rock Art, are the prototypes and form the basis of the origin of the Armenian, Hittite, Urartian, Indian and Egyptian ideograms and hieroglyphs1. 2. Tir(as) is the god of writing and wisdom in the Armenian pantheon of pagan gods. According to the medieval Armenian historians, Askanaz and Torgom (the founders of the Armenian house, who preserved knowledge of the old civilization) are listed among his sons. 3. According to Greek sources, Cadmus is the creator of the Phoenician and Greek alphabets. Cadmus (Armenian Կադմոս [Cadmos]) is the grandson of Hayk Nahapet (he is mentioned in the Biblical and Christian tradition as one of the descendants of Torgom [Togarmah]), the legendary founder of the Haykazuni dynasty, and the son of Aramaniak. Hayk Nahapet was the first to found the Temple of Knowledge (the dwelling of God); he later passes it over to his grandson Cadmus [Cadmos]. Hayk Nahapet was also the first (long before Moses) to create yearly calendar comprising 12 months2. The months were named after Hayk’s children3. The ancient territories of Phoenicia and Cilicia were passed over to the descendants of Cadmus (Draskhanakerttsi H.).

  • Some Notes on Structure of Verb of Phaistos Disc Inscription Idiom
    13 CAES Vol. 2, № 3 (September 2016) Some notes on structure of verb of Phaistos disc inscription idiom Alexander Akulov independent scholar; St.Petersburg, Russia; e-mail: [email protected] Abstarct Pendlebury and Otkupshchikov have proved that Phaistos disc inscription is read from center to periphery. Word order of all languages of ancient Mediterranean region and neighbor areas was SOV, and it’s rather logical to suppose the same for the language of disc. Having known word order it is possible to single out blocks containing predicates/verbs in the text of inscription. These blocks have plumed head sign in their ends (terminal right positions). Blocks A3, A15 show that Minoan has reduplication of root and well elaborated prefixation. Minoan can’t be relative of Etruscan since Etruscan hasn’t prefixation, but can probably be relative of Anatolian languages, or Hattic or Sumerian. Adding of some known readings hasn’t given any result for verbal forms decoding, but allowed to identify name Tetija (block B8) that seems to be Minoan form of Tethys. Key words: Phaistos disc; Minoan language; Tetija; Tethys; writing system deciphering 1. Problem introduction Phaistos disc (pic. 3) was found by expedition led by Halbherr in 1908 in Phaistos on the island of Crete (pic 1); the disk is dated about middle or late Minoan Bronze Age (second millennium B.C.); the disc is supposed to be an artifact of Crete origin (Duhoux 2000; Trauth 1990). Its writing system is syllabary (Ipsen 1929); writing system is of Cretan origin and its continuation is Linear A (Timm 2004).
