About the book
Introduces the reader to a wide variety of inscriptions on stone, pottery, bronzes and other objects in the British Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and to the techniques of reading inscriptions as well as their significance. Beginning with relatively simple examples consisting wholly or partly of names, it progresses to more complicated texts, some in local dialects, ranging in date from the seventh century BC to the third century AD.--From publisher description.
