i just stumbled on to this and it's very interesting. what i find quite disturbing though is that there is nothing to be found about what is actually written on the scrolls. not even verbatim copies of fragments. here we have a dude from nasa (?) saying they can read it like yesterday's newspaper, but they don't publish what's on them. there's people enough around the world who can read ancient greek and/or latin... i mean, even if it's just about so and so sold his house, widower remarries etc

[MrPetros249]

I translate what is visible(right column) in the scroll... ΕΤΥΧΕ ΚΑΤΑΣΤΡΑΦΗΣΟΙ ΠΛΟΙΣΤΟΙΑΣ(HAPPENS TO DESTROY MANY) ΤΩΝ ΓΓΕΑΙΤΕΥΣΑΙ ΝΩΙ(OF THE NEARBY INHABITANS) ΨΙΓΟ ΤΩΝ ΠΟΛΙΤΩΝ.(FROM THE CITIZENS.) ΕΝΤΡΑΦΟΝΤΕΣ ΩΣ ΠΕΡΒΟΕΣ(THOSE WHO SPEND THERE ALL THEIR LIFE) ΚΑΤΕΚΟΜΗΣΑΝ ΕΙ ΜΗ ΚΑΙ([TRY]BRING THEM DOWN EVEN) ΧΕΙΡΟΠΟΙΙΤΟ ΕΜΕΝΟΥ(BY FORCE THEY INSIST) ΔΙΕΧΟ ΑΝ ΑΠΟΚΤΕΙΝΟΥΣΙ(TO REMAIN NO MATTER IF THEY DIE) ΜΟΝΟΝ ΤΟΥΣ ΔΕ ΔΙΑ(JUST ONLY THEM) .... ΕΣΧΑΤΟΥ. ΟΙΑΥΤΑ(.... TO THE END. THAT IS WHY)

@MARSBOR33 Very simple answer... Southern Italy was inhabited by Greeks also...Ever heard of Magna Grecia?...Not to mention that before the Romans came in touch with Greeks and Etruscans they were culturally inferior...The only thing they knew was being shepherds and soldiers.Horace wrote=>''Graecia capta ferum victorem cepit,et artes intulit agresti Latio''=>"Greece, defeated, conquered its wild conqueror, and civilised the peasant Latins".

Fantastic work !

I have to say i didnt find anything latin in the script and the letters that are in "latin" such as "C" for the "Σ" is the greek chalhidee alphabet that was in use in Magna Greccia and make its appearance again in Byzantine.In Byzantine manuscripts you will find again the "C" taking place of "Σ" ...

continue previus translation...

ΔΙΑΤΙΘΕΑΣΙΝ ΑΛΛΑ (THEY WERE READY BUT)

..... ΠΕΡΙΤΟΥ ......(...... IT WAS IN VAIN .....)

those are what i could read....

@ts1710 They're probably waiting until they have enough to publish, or know enough about them, before they announce what they have found. Happens all the time in scientific fields. They also don't want anyone stealing the credit for their hard work, which is almost guranteed to happen if they just hand out the information willy-nilly before publishing it in scientific journals. That is one of the first places I would look for brand new information. :)

@ts1710 I completely agree. what's written on these should be viewable to the public but because many archaeological are privately funded, they're under the jurisdiction of whoever paid for them to be found.
