The Malia altar stone and the Arkalochori axe

The same file as the Phaistos Disc mystery's copy of the axe (already on the site).

Two stone and bronze objects with short inscriptions in picture-like signs that CHIC included with reservations: a stone offering table from the palace of Malia, and a bronze votive axe from the Arkalochori cave whose signs are closer to those of the Phaistos Disc. Neither can be assigned to Cretan Hieroglyphic with confidence; the axe is also recorded under the Phaistos Disc mystery on this site.
