Summary[edit]

Description
English: An example of Samaritan script from Athanasius Kircher's 1697 book Turris Babel.

This sentence should correspond, at least in part, to this Greek inscription, please see there for a Latin and English translation (it is shown by Kircher to demostrate the difference between Samaritan script and what he believed to be Ionic Greek letters). It is not the full translation of the inscription, it is followed by an etc. in the text.

Extracted and cut out from page 245 of the book file.
