Cretan hieroglyphs
Cretan hieroglyphs are found on artifacts of Bronze Age Minoan Crete (early to mid 2nd millennium BC, MM I to MM III, overlapping with Linear A from MM IIA at the earliest). Symbol inventories have been compiled by Evans (1909), Meijer (1982), Olivier/Godart (1996). The known corpus has been edited in 1996 as CHIC (Olivier/Godard 1996), listing a total of 314 items, mainly excavated at four locations: "Quartier Mu" at Malia (MM II)the hieroglyphic deposit at Malia palace (MM III)the hieroglyphic deposit at Knossos (MM II or III)the Petras deposit (MM IIB).
