If as we have tentatively concluded, reza = “measurement” and adureza = “dry measurement”, then it stands to reason that tereza means “liquid measurement”, and in this case, “liquid measurement of an alcoholic beverage”, namely, wine! What else?

      Hi there, DHL Global Forwarding! Thank you so much! I am working flat out to decipher as much of Minoan Linear A as I can. Stay posted. There should be as many as 25 words deciphered by mid-July. Richard

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.
