# Investigating the Signs and Sounds of Cypro-Minoan

Miguel Filipe Grandão Valério, 2016. _PhD thesis, Universitat de Barcelona (supervisor Ignasi-Xavier Adiego)_.

A palaeographic signary built from homogeneous subcorpora without assuming three scripts, arriving at 57 to 70 syllabograms; proposed phonetic values for 60 sign forms (nine regarded as confirmed) from comparison with Linear A and the Cypriot syllabary and internal distribution; readings of personal names in the Ugarit tablet RS 20.25 that partly agree with Nahm's 1980s proposals. 697 pages.
