5 Mysterious Ancient Languages
Hundreds of civilizations had existed before us,
but we have not fully understood many of them
until today. The major reason for that is our
inability to translate the languages they used.
In this video, we will talk about five languages
that were used in major civilizations, existed
over thousands of years ago, but have yet to be
translated and fully understood.
5. Meroitic Script:
The Meroitic language was once used in the Kingdom of Kush,
modern day Sudan, about 2300 years ago. The script have been
deciphered, however, the language is not fully understood.
Kush consisted of a large ethnic group referred to as the Nubians,
of whom still exist today in southern Egypt and Sudan.
4. The language of the Harappan civilization
or also referred to as the Indus Valley Civilization, which existed
around today's modern Pakistan, India and Iran, approximately 4000
years ago, they were also referred to as the Meluhhans by some
Mesopotamian literature.
3. Linear A
A language used by the Minoans who lived and thrived on the island of Crete, an island Part of Greece, around 4500 years ago. The first Minoan Script was found in the city of Knossos; however, no scholar has been able to translate the text until today.
2. Proto Elamite
Around 5,000 years, one of the first writing systems emerged in what's known today as modern Iran. The language was used by the early Elamites, who were closely influenced by Mesopotamia, later in history, Elamites adapted the Sumero-Akkadian language, and proto-elamite became a lost language that yet to be translated.
1. Cypro Minoan
A writing a system used by the Minoans who lived on the island of Cyprus around 3000 years ago. The cypro-Minoan scripts that have been found are short and difficult to translate due to the nonexistence of a bilingual text that can be used to decipher the text.
