Yes, is it not incredible: these were ideas that engaged the academic
world just one-hundred years back (I know from my grandfather),
hopefully intelligence has risen a little since, now when we have
rounded the six billion individuals; How many scholars?
What was then so fascinating about the disc inscription?
You see, every child, who became later an archaeologist or a linguist
was engaged in succesful plays concerning treassure hunting, secret
language etc. during childhood.
The unravelling of the riddle of the disc was a prestige-loaded
tangible treassure hunt !
