Description & Specifications

The Greek language, which has been spoken continuously, with all its changes, from at least the second millennium B.C. until today and which, according to the orator Cicero, is worthy of being spoken even by the gods, is closely intertwined with the culture, life, and fortunes of the Greeks throughout their over three-thousand-year historical journey.

In this marvelous language, considered the most perfect of all languages by foreign scholars, the divine Homer, the tragic poets of classical antiquity, the Attic orators, and others composed their immortal masterpieces. These great spiritual leaders emerge through their works as undisputed teachers and guides of humanity and as significant anatomists of the human soul.

This study clearly and convincingly emphasizes, among other interesting and important topics, the following: a. The so-called Phoenician alphabet is not original but has a Cretan origin. b. Linear B script is Greek. With the deciphering of Linear B script and the establishment that it was Minoan-Mycenaean, that is, a Greek script, the history of the Greek language and, consequently, the historical times of Greece has been pushed back almost six centuries.
