With James Clackson, Professor of Comparative Philology; Torsten Meissner, Associate Professor of Classics; Dr Ester Salgarella, Research Fellow at St John’s College and Dr Pippa Steele, Principal Investigator of the European Research Council funded project Contexts of and Relations between Early Writing Systems (CREWS).
Sixty years after Michael Ventris and John Chadwick first worked on newly deciphered texts of Linear B, Cambridge is still at the centre of new research into the scripts used in and around the Aegean Sea in the second millennium BC. In this webinar from the autumn 2021 series, Torsten, Pippa and Ester discuss their pioneering research and new discoveries about Linear B and its relationship to Linear A and other ancient scripts.
Torsten, Pipppa and Ester are introduced by James Clackson.
