These discoveries are principally, but not entirely, numismatic, and have revealed the names of sovereigns of Greek race, and of their Scythian, and Parthian successors, of none of whom is any mention to be found in the extant histories of the East or West. There has also been Opened to the curious, through these coins, a lan guage, the existence of which was hitherto unknown, and which must have been the vernacular dialect of some of the regions in which the Grecian colonies were established. The coins possess particular value as a key for the cypher of this language through their bilingual legends and superscriptions, and have been extensively and successfully used for that purpose. But the investi gation deserves, and requires to be further prosecuted, for there are inscriptions forthcoming in the language, which, if the ingenuity of the learned should succeed in com pletely translating and explaining them, cannot fail to throw much light, on the worse than Cimmerian darkness, that still enve10ps the age and country which have be queathed them to us.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
