My husband had a look and said it had a touch of arabic so his guess would be Babylonian or Assyrian.
Edit: Probably not Babylonian. If it helps the scripts are written from right to left.
Haha. It is definitely interesting though. Keep us updated.
I'm only good for Antarctican Penguish
Well, I used to. Gave it up though, not much use for it these days.
I'm a bit rusty...
You and I have loved before
I know the rules of love and you do, also
A commitment to one another with no bounds is what I am considering
This I believe is not something another man is able to offer you
I must tell you of my feelings; to convey understanding
I am never going to give you up
I am never going to let you down
I will not flee desert you
I will not cause you undue distress
I will not willingly say farewell I will not tell a falsehood and cause you pain
those Assyrians were true poets ๐ฉท๐ฅน๐ฉท
Ah, yeah, so that was me attempting a joke....
I went and checked with some work collegues. They tell me it's Assyrian script.
Edit: Tried to tell me initially that it was Ashuri
Ancient scripts are just a script, and many languages use a script, like English and French use the same script but are different languages..
So script and language, once you decode you can prolly determine language
