The Breakthrough of Michael Ventris

I have written much about the Minoans and Arthur Evans firm belief were that the tablets he discovered that came to be known as Linear B where in his opinion definitely not Greek or even Ancient Greek. This in fact was wrong and Michael Ventris proved that they were, in fact, Greek. Because of this discovery we are much more able to progress beyond Evans. In fact I am pleased to announce that the BBC wrote an article upom Ventris and then went on to create a film of his whole story.

Here is the film of the story. It is a you-tube film in seven or so parts.  Here is the first part, see the rest on you-tube.

It is brilliant.
