Abstract

After a decade of research on the interconnections between Greece, Ugarit, and Israel, with Crete as the hub, Gordon approached the decipherment of Minoan Linear A. Previous scholars had realized that Linear A was not Greek as in Linear B. Gordon stepped in to assert, controversially, that the language of Minoan Linear A was a West Semitic dialect.
