The Phaistos Disk
In Ancient Greek, Syllabic Script

The Phaistos Disk is covered on both sides
with pictographic script running spirally
from the outside inwards
(according to investigations of the original under microscope by Yves Duhoux).
 



CONVERSION OF THE PHAISTOS DISC SYMBOLS INTO GREEK SYLLABLES

 



The English reading of the  very ancient Greek,
word for word (separated by hyphens) is as follows:


SIDE A: Foreseen
(are) - as given - standing straight lines (perpendiculars)
- to be constructed (drawn). - To the side - of either such line segment
- extend - a partner line - running - alongside. - The Problem (LEMMA):
- Consider - whether these - Parallel Lines - extended - stay - Parallels.
Consider - whether these - Parallels - extended converge (diverge).
- The synthetic - added line - would foresee - a medial (uncertain) - termination.
- Extended (beyond bounds) - a fixed (converging) - termination.
 


SIDE B:
Next to - the categorized - just constructed lines - and flat to
- the side walls' - diameter - inscribe - a closed arc - and make it so that
- the new line - curve -  in its course - the side walls - diagonally - joins.
- Tie together - yoked - the branched lines. - Connect - the standing
straight lines - and branched lines. - Run a line so that - the newly created
- geodetic lines - are met - and the branched lines - pair is yoked
.
- The promised - solution - is given.
 



 



For an interesting and in my opinion correct astronomical interpretation
and practical use of the above figure go to Steve Burdic.
