Theban precursor?

Hi, great to see you doing some work towards the various script articles. No, I don't have the Pennick book, so I can't check it for you. All I have at the moment is my own note (carefully drawn) of what the script looked like. It should turn up at some stage. I don't even know if it is a precursor or came later...

The images you have provided are really nice, although I'd also like to see some scans with better detail. I notice that the script appearing below Theban in Polygraphia is the script used for the Golden Dawn "cipher documents". That might be of interest to some people... Anyway, good work!

Hey Nyctophilia. Where did you get those images from? Did you scan them yourself of find them online somewhere? I'd like to see more. --Ptcamn 13:00, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi there. I do not have a Wikipedia account, but I have a question about the image you posted at this location: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/1f/NyctoFrenchPolygraphia.jpg You identified the first alphabet as the Theban alphabet (something I am very grateful for), but I'd like to know what the alphabet on the lower portion of the page is.
