A plain text in transliteration of the Linear B tablets from
Knossos. Since the first publication of these tablets in 1952,
various scholars worked to improve the texts. The results of their
researches were published in successive editions of The Knossos
Tablets: A Transliteration. This 1971 fourth edition completely
replaced the third of 1964. It contains the texts of many fragments
previously discarded as unreadable, and several hundred improved
texts resulting from joins between fragments. In addition, the
original of every tablet has been closely scrutinised and numerous
improvements in the readings have been made. The system of
classification has been modified, and many more tablets are now
assigned to series, and for the first time there was an attempt to
reconstruct the original filing system of the archive. The scribal
hand is noted where it can be identified. The book is indispensable
for all scholars who wish to work directly on this material.
