## Where it stands

No answers have been proposed yet.

## Why it matters

Mäder has proposed me and pa from a cylinder seal, published by Garbini in 2004, that labels Akhenaten's three daughters in Byblos signs in the same scene as the Berlin family stela, where their names are in hieroglyphs; the paper is forthcoming⁠[[1]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0DEDGR7ECH4T/byblos-first-sound-value-proposal-based-on-external-evidence). Hoch's derivation from Egyptian consonant signs would, if right, predict the consonant of each derived sign⁠[[2]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0DEDFVFAGQQQ/the-byblos-syllabary-bridging-the-gap-between-egyptian)⁠[[3]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0DEDGS16TNCV/james-hoch-1990-confirmed-byblos-signs-and-the-egyptian). Hoch's reading of four lines on fragment l as Egyptian hieratic shows that Egyptian writing and the Byblos script were used side by side⁠[[4]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0DEDFVTR04AS/egyptian-hieratic-writing-in-the-byblos-pseudo-hieroglyphic).
