Hi,
My name is Jim Finn and I was told by Mr Landini that the best place to get 
answers to questions would be here.
I, like everyone else i guess, am working on a translation of the text. I 
have the first seven lines of page one, <f1r.P1.1;H>-<f1r.P2.7;H> 
translated according to what I know about the ancients.  I am not ready to 
make a big deal out of this yet and simply have a question.  There is a 
word in <f1r.P1.4;H>,  cth*ar.  Now the * is a mark for something 
undecipherable in the text.  I find it curious that it would be where it 
is. There is another "mark", *.  odar. in line seven.  Again I find this 
curious.  Now it well may be a blotch or simply an undecipherable letter. I 
need to know what those marks are. If it is a symbol it belongs in the 
text. It will broaden the translation as I see it.  If its a simple letter 
or blotch, then thats what it is, but if anyone can help me with this I 
would appreciate it tremendously.


Thanks
Jim
