Hans-Rudolf Hitz

Swiss microbiologist and amateur epigrapher who from 1979 published readings of the Glozel tablets as a Celtic language in an Etruscan-derived alphabet, in a series of mostly self-published volumes to 2011.

Hans-Rudolf Hitz is swiss microbiologist and amateur epigrapher, author of the Celtic decipherment of Glozel (1979-2011)., and appears in the record of Glozel: the inscribed tablets of the Fradin field as swiss microbiologist and amateur epigrapher who from 1979 published readings of the Glozel tablets as a Celtic language in an Etruscan-derived alphabet, in a series of mostly self-published volumes to 2011.

One event on the site involves Hitz: Hitz publishes a Celtic decipherment (1979).

Two questions rest in part on what Hitz did or said, among them “Do the Glozel signs form a writing system that records a language?”, which stands open: 4 answers, none ahead.
