Item P has been added.
P (Barthel)
P (Barthel), line-breaks
P (Fischer)
P (Fischer), line-breaks
Glyph search now includes A-P. The corpus file is 90MB.
Item O has been added.
O (Barthel)
O (Barthel), line-breaks
O (Fischer)
O (Fischer), line-breaks
Since the Barthel tracings of this tablet are so poor I have numbered things to match Fischer’s drawings better. Barthel’s lines are numbered 3-9 (rather than 1-7). Also I have updated the code numbers to match the glyph shapes that Fischer has recorded.
Items M has been added, and glyph search includes glyphs on items A-N.
M (Barthel)
M (Barthel), line-breaks
M (Fischer)
M (Fischer), line-breaks
Items H and N are now completed.
H (Barthel)
H (Barthel), line-breaks
H (Fischer)
H (Fischer), line-breaks
N (Barthel)
N (Barthel), line-breaks
N (Fischer)
N (Fischer), line-breaks
others things that have been fixed:
- Numbering for the (strange) sequence 001.001-074 on line 5 of I has been fixed.
- The last four glyphs of line Hv12 that were missing (from the scans) have been added.
- A page for doing glyph searches has been added. This searches Items A – L only so far. The corpus file is however already 62MB so this is very slow. Something will have to be done about that.
I have uploaded svgs pages for the Santiago Staff. As before the glyphs are separated, and numbered. Again I have uploaded pages with whole, and wrapped lines.
However there is a big cautionary note; the lines on these pages are given in “Horley-order”, rather than the traditional order. So line 1 is the traditional “11”, 2 is “10” and so on. The last line 14 is the traditional “12.” This is the same order as Fischer backwards. Obviously I should have placed the traditional numbers in parenthesis (or something user-friendly like that), but these pages have been generated automagically, and doing such things would require that I edit them by hand. Surely anyone can do the calculation 14 – (n+2) modulo 14 in their head?
For those who are tired of horizontal scrolling, I have now added yet another display option. (XML is fun.)

The line wrapping is auto-generated, so it may not always fall in the most opportune place. For this reason I have doubled glyphs near the line wrap. To avoid confusion, the doubled glyphs are displayed in grey/mauve on second occurrence. Since the wrapping depends entirely on the choice of line length, the line breaks are different on the Fischer displays as those lines are generally drawn much longer with more widely spaced glyphs.
Pages for G have been added.
G with lines and codes – Barthel
G with lines and codes – Fischer
I have now added some experiments that I made with a new version of a complete corpus. This is going to be a big file. Including the tablets completed so far (A – G, J, K and L) it is already 45+ MB. Using this file I can now search for glyphs and display them in context. Some random samples are shown on the pages linked to below.

I have added svg display pages for Items C and K. Again these are pages with codes and lines identifying the glyphs. Pages for both Barthel’s tracings and Fischer drawings have been added. I have also revised the earlier pages (A, B, D, E, J, L) and corrected some errors.
The higher quality Barthel images are now complete. Pages which display them and the preliminary svgs created from them are now up. In particular items C, F, M, O, U, V, W, and X have been added. Note that these pages contain only what is actually drawn in Barthel. Lines Fa5, Fb1-4, Ub1, will display broken image links. Also the lines of item O are renumbered Oa3-9 to match Fischer’s numbering.
The svgs will be the basis for improved search and display pages, including Barthel/Fischer comparison pages.
The display of the quality scanned images will also need to be improved.
