«Between the Sea and the Plain: discovering Southwestern Writing» is the theme of yet another Science in the Conversation, which will take archaeologists Pedro Barros and Samuel Melro, on 1 November, at 15 pm, to the Centro Ciência Viva de Lagos .
In this conversation, with free entry, the archaeologists responsible for the Estela Project they will talk about the vestiges of this writing from the west of the Iberian Peninsula, which is over 2500 years old, and which remains undecipherable today, despite knowing its inspiration in Phoenician characters.
It is, in the end, almost a return of writing from the Southwest to one of his cribs, as it was near Lagos, in Bensafrim, that one of the first stelae identified with this, the oldest script in Iberia, was discovered at the end of the XNUMXth century.
To the conversation about these archaeological remains, CCV Lagos joins the challenge of epigraphing in the schist with writing from the Southwest.
