oh,,,almost forgot..the former is only understood provided someone actually knows what linear A is. And to everyone, if you have some kind of time machine and have heard a Minoan speaking and speaking greek then ...dunno! they didnt speak greek they had a language that archaeologists are struggling for years to decipher.

Baines, J., Bennet, J., and Houston, S. (eds) 2008. The

disappearance of writing systems: perspectives on literacy and

communication. London: Equinox, in press. you cannot find that book unless you have subscription to London library or are a master or phd student in archaeology and know the professor that compiled it. or if you can afford hmm dunno round 150 pounds?? i do have some bibliography if you are really interested in the archaeological truth rather than any static beliefs . enjoy ;)

"Nothing in the Linear A syllabary suggests that it was structurally dissimilar, although it appears that the phonetic structure of the language behind Linear A differed from that of Greek." "However, it had become clear, even before

the decipherment, that there were differences.With the decipherment came the realization that one important, underlying difference was language."
