Linear A

Linear A is one of two linear scripts in Ancient Crete. These two were discovered by Arthur Evans. He also named these scripts. Linear B was deciphered in 1952 by Michael Ventris and was used to write Mycenaean Greek. Linear B values have been used in attempt to decipher Linear A but Linear A has never been fully translated. These scripts share many similar symbols but when the symbols from Linear B are used to decipher Linear A, the words are unclear. This is very confusing and is reason while many people have been unsuccessful.
