  As a linguist, one of the most exciting things about deciphering these ancient inscriptions is finding new words or new word forms that were previously unknown. Finding new vocabulary like this aids, in particular, the historical reconstruction of a language, as well as studies on language contact (how languages influence each other).

  Any Maya decipherment is very exciting, and the Pompeian restorations are super thrilling!<br>Thanks for posting!

  I hope there&apos;s a &quot;new&quot; greek tragedy in those scrolls.

  Amazing. The ability to “read” the past is certainly one of humanity’s great gifts.

  I&apos;m not usually a poetry guy, but that Babylonian hymn seems special and paints a picture of a lost ancient city 🥲<br><br>Loved the video!

  I love this kind of inscription because we usually have some kind of idealized idea about those civilization and people, but when you read those you understand they were just as mundane as you are, preoccupied by daily aspects intricate into their civilization concerns... Fascinating indeed.

  The hymn to Babylon is beautiful. I hope we eventually have it in it&apos;s totality. It&apos;s very revealing about what ancient Babylonians were thinking, and what they cared about so much to write this.<br><br>All of this is very exciting! It&apos;s how we can connect with long ago people whom we can never meet, and yet know something about their lives.
