Tablets from the palace archive
Linear B stayed unread until 1953. Once it was deciphered, the script turned out to be writing Mycenaean Greek, the earliest form of Greek on record, used between 1375 and 1100 BCE. It is a logo-syllabary of 87 syllabic signs and more than 100 ideographic ones, and its lines run boustrophedon, changing direction from 1 line to the next.
The Monotype design team drew the Noto version as a plain, unmodulated sans. It supports 272 characters from 3 Unicode blocks, the Linear B Syllabary, the Linear B Ideograms and the Aegean Numbers, with Latin alongside.
1 Regular weight, on Google Fonts since November 2020. A classics department or a museum label is where it will find work.
