John, thank you for the very thoughtful paper. If you are interested I wrote an article addressing some of these issues about 30 years ago. I’m sure you’re very busy, but I’d love to get your thoughts if you ever get some down time! Best wishes. David Sloan
I just looked at your abstract. Sorry that I missed this! I will definitely have a look at what you wrote and cite your connection of Anthon to the Abraham saga as well. More proof that when you think you have a really neat original idea, it is usually the case someone else already thought it! Thanks for drawing my attention to it!
You’re very welcome. I thought we had some similar ideas but a different focus, and that the articles reinforce and complement each other. I’m not trained in Egyptian, so if you have any comments on my conclusions in that area, I’d be very interested.
John, thanks for your article. Well argued. I believe that you are correct that there must have been two scripts on the plates.
