A QUANTITATIVE APPROACH TO THE ANALYSIS OF THE SOUTH WESTERN SCRIPT

Author: Joan FERRER i JANÉ

In: Palaeohispanica 16 (2016), 39-79.

This paper analyses the south western script, also known as Tartessian, mainly from a quantitative approach, taking advantage of the structure of this script, which makes it especially suitable for an analysis of

this kind. The aim is to assess the discrepancies between researchers in the interpretation of signs without consensus value, where it is possible, with the help of quantitative indicators, but without losing sight of the qualitative information coming from the close relationship between the south-western script and the southeastern Iberian script.
