The old yemeni script

Extinct languages should be revived

 

[ሕጊ።።]

It'd probably take forever to be revived

 

[adaharari]

There are many extinct ones

What did the ancient Somalis script look like?
There's an image floating around of an old-ass tablet found in Somalia that has symbols and letters people have been unable to decipher so far.
Pretty sure it didn't look that different from Ge'ez or this script, unless my memory is failing me.

Which one?

Which one?

My bad - it was actually an ancient tablet written using Wadaad's (Arabic) script. A tablet with ancient inscriptions on it has been found, but there are no images of it online. I have no idea why, it would be incredibly useful to look at historically. Maybe if more people could look at it, we could have a higher chance of deciphering it. There might be stuff on there that would completely reinvent the way we look at our history.

Oh right. I thought you were talking about the one that always shows the tablet and a zoomed in section on the side.

IDK what you mean, but Dr. Sada Mire used that image in one of her presentations.

So part of somalia was part of d'mt?

NO! Somalia had its own city states at the time of D'mt. Archeologists found Ancient Egyptian, Mycenanean (Greek), and Persian pottery dating back to the 17th century BC in Northern Somalia which means that Somalia was the Land of Punt.
