Linear A tablet tagged “19” & the Minoan word for “tripod” = puko (confirmation):This tablet confirms that the Minoan Linear A word for “tripod” is puko. The co-incidence with the same word plus the ideogram for “tripod” on Haghia Triada tablet HT 31 is too great for it to be otherwise.

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.
