THE LANGUAGE OF THE IBERIANS
THE LANGUAGE OF THE IBERIANS / DISCOVERING THE WORLD OF THE IBERIANS (III)
Since the Iberian alphabet was deciphered in the mid-20th century, numerous philologists have studied Iberian texts in an attempt to translate them. Despite significant progress, the Iberian language remains undeciphered, although some elements have been identified with reasonable certainty. In this video, we analyze what we know about Iberian and consider possible future directions for the discipline, including the possibility of finding a bilingual text or the use of AI.
