Linear B Medallions & Their Meanings.

My highly skilled, really PRO student, Rita Roberts, just posted these medallions on her Bog, so I simply HAD to repost them on mine. They are actually on a lot of Linear B sites. No wonder! But Rita got them all! No one has before. Clever!

    These Medallions show up better on your blog Richard, because of the blue background.

    Hi, Rita! Can you ask your friends who often visit your blog to send me an e-mail asking to sign up with mine so that they can comment. My blog is moderated. That is the reason. Richard

      O.K. will do. But I can’t promise that they will of course.

Sappho, spelled (in the dialect spoken by the poet) Psappho, (born c. 610, Lesbos, Greece — died c. 570 BCE). A lyric poet greatly admired in all ages for the beauty of her writing style.

Her language contains elements from Aeolic vernacular and poetic tradition, with traces of epic vocabulary familiar to readers of Homer. She has the ability to judge critically her own ecstasies and grief, and her emotions lose nothing of their force by being recollected in tranquillity.
