  3. Do you know that the earliest known Greek is Linear B (You can see the scripts in this site)? Despite such a non-descriptive name, Linear B has proved to be the oldest surviving record of the Greek dialect known as Mycenaean, named after the great site of Mycenae where the legendary Agamemnon ruled. The script's usage spanned the time period between approximately 1500 BCE and 1200 BCE , and geographically covered the island of Crete, as well as the southern part of the Greek Mainland. (Another site with a logograms - pictorial scripts) But Linear B as Greek is challenged by other scholars. If you want to use Linear B, try this font (Windows, Macintosh).
