Dear Yigal:
I have found that in Spain the Iberian literature has been confused
by the German school of archaeology with a short silabic, so that its Hebrew
alphabet is unknown for encyclopedias.
The same exercise was carried out with the literature of the Roman
Empire, recreating a language, "old Latin" non-existent, as latin reading
signs that are not Latin.
I do not try to talk about Kabbalah, or hidden meanings, since the
design of the coins has sufficient links with the text and its use by the
common people had to ensure their understanding, of their law.
Maybe the Roman coins could help us to distinguish between the biblical
Hebrew, medieval or rabbinic. Their information, despite being unpointed
text also helps to know the evolution of Hebrew vocalization.
