Re: [tied] Tyrrhenian's new family members

 

 

 I have copies of some pages of the Cyril Babaev's site.
The relevant paragraph follows:

The next language is Eteo-Cypriot, spoken on the island of Cyprus up to the fourth century BC. It is mainly known from tablets from Enkomi, which were written in a variant of the Linear A, but in most tablets the script is very far evoluted. Unfortunately, they remain undeciphered as well. We have, however, eight short inscriptions in the local Cypriot tongue written int the fourth century using the local syllabic script. One is partially bilingual : ana matori umiesaimukulailasana arisitonose aratovanakasokoose kerakeretulosetakanaku (?) no (?) soli alo kailipolo. The greek text reads: he polis he Amathousion Aristona Aristonaktos Eupatriden. The phonetics of Eteo-Cypryot is sometimes considered also related to Etruscan, but nothing more can be discovered yet.
