Inscription
Standard transnumeration: *156 X *151 V *175 I 306 306 306*153 XV *154 VIII 306 306 306
Remarks on the inscription: A different reading of the first signs can be suggested that makes this document a Linear A inscription. Instead of CH *156 X *151 V, we suggest AB 67 - 06 X 302+073 V. If we accept this, the transcription of the other signs, which are common to both Cretan Hieroglyphic and Linear A, should be turned into Linear A standard numeration (i.e. 08 I 706 706 706 *120 XV *122 VIII 706 706 706)
