The Mystery of the Phaistos Disc - Missing Persons Myster...

What this episode covers

The Phaistos Disc is an archaeological anomaly that sits in a glass case in the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, quietly mocking the greatest minds in linguistics and cryptography. Discovered in 1908 in the ruins of a Minoan palace on the island of Crete, this 15-centimeter clay circle is more than just a relic; it is a "black swan" of human history. It represents a technology—movable type—that shouldn't have existed for another 3,000 years, used to record a language that has no known relatives on EarthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/missing-persons-mysteries--5624803/support.
