14 - The Syllable PO : Origins of Writing in Western Civilization and the Kaulins Minoan Aegean Sign Concordance (MinAegCon™): A Syllabic Grid of Mycenaean Greek Linear B Script, the Cypriot Syllabary, the Phaistos Disk, two Old Elamite Scripts, the Inscription on the Axe of Arkalochori, and Comparable Signs from Sumerian Pictographs and Egyptian Hieroglyphs

This is the 14th posting in this series (which started here), and presents the Syllable PO in the Syllabic Grid. Each syllable is presented in its own posting.

There is first a scan of a "syllabic" table excerpt from the original Microsoft Word manuscript -- the links there are not clickable because it is one image.

That image is followed by the original text -- the links there are clickable -- but you can not see the Aegean Fonts or images embedded in Microsoft Word, as these do not resolve in Blogger, so you will see "a ? ? filler".

The Syllable PO in the Minoan Aegean Sign Concordance (by Andis Kaulins)

Syllabic Value of the Sign (Symbol) (there was no universally established AEIOU vowel system yet in this era, and there were dipthongs, so that a strict AEIOU system here is a bit misleading)	Cypriot Syllabary signs from the BabelMap (Unicode Character Map for Windows)	Linear B (Ventris & followers) (standard Bennet numbers in parentheses) Aegean Font	Phaistos Disk (Kaulins) (first deciphered by him in the years 1978- 1980)	Axe of Arkalochori (Kaulins) (these same basic signs are also on the Phaistos Disk). This column also provides explanatory photo images for various Minoan symbols	Elamite Script (Kaulins) (same basic signs as the Phaistos Disk -  see also here)	Sumerian Pictographs and/or Egyptian Hieroglyphs and/or sign commentary on individual symbols
PO ποιέω “to make” This is a companion sign to Linear B TE τέκτων viz. τέχνη "craftsman, master of an art". The one identifies the craftsman maker  and the other the making.	Cypriot syllabary No comparable sign known to this author, but there may be one I do not know of.	Linear B 𐀠(39) PO In Linear B scholarship this is PI in error and the axe is in error as PO.	Phaistos Disk No Comparable  sign.	No similar sign on Axe Comment: This sign in Linear B appears to be a creation limited to Crete and formed from the Linear B sign for TE	No Elamite sign yet.	No Sumerian comparable.
