As I have mentioned in previous
posts, the Minoans of ancient Crete did have a written language entitled Linear
A by the archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans, who is attributed for much of his work
with the Linear A script. Now, the artifacts that contain this writing are few
and have yet to be fully translated. However, the script of Linear B, which
existed later with the Mycenaeans on Crete, has been translated through the use
of ancient Greek and can be used to decipher some Linear A characters.
