TRADE
So, I am understanding
that the Greek Alphabet
is a List of important economic commodities
which were produced and
controlled up until the end of the 2nd
AGE,
by 24
entities, each represented by a symbol,
which may describe a
dominant shape in the landscape
easily seen by approach
from the air.
This shows me,
that this List indicated
the major players in Global Trade,
during this time.
So, I think that the name
of the above particular version of the alphabet,
being Koine,
ie. Coin,
may indicate that it was
the mainstream version
describing the global
trading partners,
the forerunners of
something like The United Nations, if you like.
I think also, that these
commodities, and hence the entities producing them,
were ascribed a number,
ranking them from 1, being the most important, downwards.
Also, I think that the
word,
COUNTRY
inherently means
COUNT R
V I
ie. Vying to be counted amongst the most
important (or elite).
No. 1
ie. ALP "H" A
A (particular) Alp (snow-capped
mountain
peak)
Most probably in the
close vicinity,
and helping to mark the
position of –
The Salzburg (Salts Town)
Salt Mine
Which must have been
the leading world producer
of –
SALT
Which must have been
the No. 1 commodity.
Probably as a food (meat)
preservative.
Switzerland,
nearby, is still the centre of the ultra wealthy
and No.1 world, economic
and government activity.
SALT
Salt has probably been
transported in many different types of baskets / containers,
but, I think that one
predominant way,
particularly in the 2nd AGE with the dry environment,
was using this type
as one could be easily swung
either side of a donkey or mule –
These can be seen in this
photo,
with the resultant cone
of salt
that would have been delivered to the customer -
