QuestionsGlozel: the inscribed tablets of the Fradin fieldWhich published alphabets do the Glozel signs resemble, and could a forger of the 1920s have drawn on them?Answer
Answer · Glozel: the inscribed tablets of the Fradin field
A repertoire assembled from printed alphabet tables
The sign repertoire was assembled from printed Phoenician and Iberian alphabet tables available to Morlet, and grew as new tables reached him.
Where it stands
Still possibleOne piece of evidence for, one against. It needs two reviews to be accepted.
What it predicts
- Every sign in Morlet's table has a printed model in a handbook available in France before its first appearance at Glozel.
- The order of first appearance of sign types tracks the dates of publications in Morlet's hands.
What would rule it out
- A substantial set of Glozel signs has no printed model before 1936 and matches an ancient script published only later.
