## What it's used for here

Annual of the British School at Athens 116, pp. 63 to 94. Proposes a framework for how images became script signs in Cretan Hieroglyphic (c. 1900 to 1600 BC) and Linear A (c. 1800 to 1450 BC) and how signs passed between graphically related scripts. Source for the dating and for the iconographic approach to sign origins. Paywalled; abstract only.
