Excerpt from The Hittites and Their LanguageIN 1887 I published a small volume on 'altaic Hieroglyphs and Hittite Inscriptions, ' now sold out. In this I explained the reasons for suppos ing this script to be decipherable by aid of Mongol speech, and added tentative renderings of some of the shorter texts, ~while the reader was duly warned that much time would elapse before final results, on the lines laid down, could be expected. I received kind encouragement from several well-known specialists to continue the study, which has now occupied me for ten years, with results which confirm the original suggestions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
