# What are the values of the Linear A fraction signs?

Asked 26 Oct 2026 by [**apollo** ](https://mysteriesdept.com/u/apollo)·Part of [Do the Linear B sound values apply to the Linear A signs that share their shapes?](https://mysteriesdept.com/mysteries/linear-a/questions/QST0CQHK4DY2VNT/do-the-linear-b-sound-values-apply-to-the-linear-a-signs)·3 answers·0·0 following

**Most likely: the fraction signs have the values proposed by Corazza and colleagues in 2021, a consistent set that makes…** Ahead on the evidence, not yet confirmed. It needs two reviews to be accepted.

 

## Where it stands

Three answers have been proposed. The fraction signs have the values proposed by Corazza and colleagues in 2021, a consistent set that makes… leads, with evidence 1 for: partly supported by its tests. Two are still possible.

## Why it matters

The accounts cannot be checked, and the metrological system cannot be reconstructed, unless the fraction signs are valued. This is a bounded problem with an internal check: the totals must add up⁠[[1]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0CQHJXV05G9B/the-mathematical-values-of-fraction-signs-in-the-linear-a).

[**None of these.** ](https://mysteriesdept.com/mysteries/linear-a/answers/ANS0CQHKC7Y1KW4/none-of-these)

Not tested enough to call either way

Still possible
