Careful/ Attention ! This post is not a decipherment or reading of any actual written content of Tartaria tablets. Given that the signs do not belong to a single writing system but to several, the page has a purely didactic character. It has the role of trying and testing different writings, in the idea that the tablets would have used one of them. The signs on the tablets belong to several writing systems over a long period of time and which have been used in different geographical areas. In none of the trials did the signs fall into a single type of writing, there always remained signs that came from other writings (or as coming from the unknown). Most of the signs come from the Sumerian proto-cuneiform -shaped ones. The signs in the upper half of the round tablet seem to come from archaic Greek writing. This “collection” of signs seems to be the fruit of one’s rich imagination. As A. Falkenstein and A. A. Vaiman found, (this is also my firm opinion) the author was not a scribe, he had only vague notions about writing in general, and it is not known what he intended or he was after. There are many elements of inconsistency as well as others that take the tablets out of the usual patterns and norms of honest logic, writing and intentions.
1.PRESENT PAGE IS CONSTITUTED AS A WORKING HYPOTHESIS, (IT IS TRUE BEEING SUPPORTED BY MANY REAL FACTS ). BUT I STARTED WHEN MANY “STRANGE COINCIDENCES (by chance or not, we’ll see) WERE GATHERING. 2.AN AVERAGE-LEVEL READER, UNINITIATED IN WORLD WRITING DEVELOPEMENT WILL HAVE DIFFICULTIES REGARDING WORLD SIGN LIBRARY, SO I RECOMMEND TO REVIEW MAIN WRITING SISTEMS AT OMNIGLOT.COM *********************************************
- Tablets display a mixture of signs, for wich the closest writing sistem beeing sumerian proto-cuneiform, otherwise the signs beeing present in later periods of time and large cultural areas, from Near East to Europe. My denomination for the group of signs is ” a mixture of signs”, if not hodge-podge. Some of the signs are close and exactly as letters from archaic greek writing.
- There was found an inscription in Sannicolaul-Mare/Romania, “BUYLA INSCRIPTION”, written with greek letters but but written by a late wave of an asiatic migratory people of turkik/altaic stock, (avar) people. I advance here the hipothesis that Tartaria tablets were written by same people as Buyla inscription. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Sumerians, after one hipothesis were coming from Asia, beeing a branch of altaic family.

<< the Sumerian is not a language isolate, as it is regarded so far, but that it may be classified as an r–Altaic language of the Bolgar branch.>>
- Geto-dacians linked with scitians, saka and KUSAN (Da yuezhi). From https://www.romanianhistoryandculture.com/getaewhatsinaname.htm << It is, therefore, not rare to read in Indian scriptures about the Sakas, Kushans (Da Yuezhi), and even the Hunas (White Huns or Ephthalites) being considered as Mlecchas (foreigners, outcastes), Asuras (demons), etc. (Dhillon 1994, 15). Similar perspectives are alluded to in Persian or Chinese texts. ….. Da (Greater) Yuezhi or in the earlier pronunciation d’ad-ngiwat-tieg, has been seen to equate with the Massagetae who occupied the oases and steppelands of West Central Asia in the time of Herodotus; here Massa renders an Iranian word for “Great,” hence “Great Getae.” … Others have seen in this word an attempt to capture in Chinese the name of a tribe that is rendered in Greek as the Iatioi who are recorded in Ptolemy’s geography. The original pronunciation has been reconstructed as gwat-ti or got-ti or gut-si, which opens up distant lexical similarities with the Goths (the German tribes of northern and eastern Europe), the Getae (the Dacian, i.e., Balkan, tribes northwest of the Black Sea), the Guti (a people on the borderlands of Mesopotamia), the Kusha (our Kushans), the Gushi (a people mentioned in Han texts and regarded as brigands along with the peoples of Kroran), or a combination of some but not all of the above (Mallory and Mair 2000, 98-99).
This comparison of like-sounding tribal names, although merely a paragraph in length, could potentially generate volumes of discussion and can help us understand more definitively the nature of the barbarian invasions in ancient Rome, the powerful Kushan Empire in India, the possible origins of the Guti people, the Guti kings of Mesopotamia, and the similarity between the Goths, Getae, and the Yuezhi. Moreover, this opens up the possibility that at least some of the people termed “Scythians” were a single tribe — the Getae. So could there have been a nation of nomads who knew themselves as Gets, Gats, Guts, or Yuts?
====================================================- In my opinion, the tablets by far are not so old as was estimated in past time.Tartaria-Gura Luncii archaeological site by one hand is containing different cultures folowing one after another and by the other hand was turned upside-down by the river Mures and modern construction works. One of the most recent remains pertain to an fortification, maybe madeby tatars.

- << În momentul de faţă, raportat la actualul stadiu al cercetării, suntem nevoiţi să avem în vedere două ipoteze de lucru privitoare la originea şi funcţionalitatea puternicei fortificaţii (Fig. 15 –conturarea tellului și fortificației) de la Tărtăria-Gura Luncii:
-
- O fortificaţie a tătarilor, un loc de adunare a cetelor tătărăşti înainte de atacul asupra centrului deputere de la Alba-Iulia.
- O fortificaţie a populaţiei din zonă, un punct de apărare şi în acelaşi timp de control al Văii
Mureşului, în punctul cel mai bine plasat strategic, punct de control folosit încă în perioada hallstatiană şi apoi în secolele VIII-IX, aşa cum demonstrează descoperirile mai vechi, dar extrem de relevante, de la Blandiana şi Tărtăria.Pentru această ipoteză avem şi susţinerea singurului izvor scris: Carmen Miserabile în care clericul Roger (Rogerius) relatează în capitolul XL (40) despre existenţa unei populaţii numeroase în Transilvania, populaţie ce a ridicat numeroase fortificaţii după prima trecere a tătarilor spre vest, fortificaţii distruse însă, în cea mai mare parte de tătari, la întoarcerea lor spre Asia „… ….. Dacă fortificaţia de la Tărtăria face parte dintre cele multe ridicate: „castra plurima preparata”, atunci este foarte probabil că este şi dintre puţinele nepustiite: „exceptis castris quibustam”, deoarece urme ale unei incendieri sau ale unui conflict armat nu au fost surprinse arheologic. Aceasta ar fi putut, de asemenea, să fie rezultatul „cruţării” fortificaţiei de la Tărtăria, în scopul folosirii ei drept loc de reşedinţă, drept centru de putere al noii forţe militare ce se impune, pentru foarte scurt timp în Transilvania, într-un loc apropiat de centrul ecleziastic şi politic de la Alba Iulia, un loc dominant şi un excelent punct de observaţie şi control.>>

- All scientists encountered difficulties with the interpretation of those “D–letter” shaped signs (otherwise not appearing only in much later time) on the round tablet. Image, http://aplaceofbrightness.blogspot.com/2008/11/moonlight-in-romania-tartaria-tablets_21.html
- Some sought that represented the Moon. And near-by e.g. in the upper-left corner of the round tablet it is an H-like sign, wich represented in early chinese writing, in different times (beginning with Jiahu bones) Sun or Moon. From http://www.sunnyokanagan.com/joshua/Rabbit.html
- What about IF indeed, trully represented the Sun and Moon !? !? Note. Surprisingly, the sing was archaic greek letter Heta/Eta, so I expected to be a monogram for Helios/ Elios…No way, not found !
- ========================================== … but much rare than the D-signs itself, there is the sign group “D D o o”
- Until now, only 3 main hypothesis were advanced: 1- an sumerian-like number 2- moon phases 3 – greek word, written with archaic greek letters ; latin abbreviation D.D.O.C. (“de doctrina christiana”; “decretorum doctor” )
- Afterwards, there is only one language in the World wich permit such a sequence !! =============================================

…..if my 2 days before post was entitled “AN CURIOUS-DUBIOUS ENTERTAINMENT” now I am not sure wich be the title. There I reffered to an inscription found in Sannicolau-Mare city, in the west of Romania wich has signs similar those on Tartaria tablets (at least regarding that round-one tablet). Sannicolau Mare map, http://www.maplandia.com/romania/timis/timisoara/accommodation/sannicolau-mare/
In fact, at Sannicolau-Mare were found a hoard of inscriptions, on different artefacts. For all some scientists expressed their opinions: VEKONY, András; Róna-Tas /Hungary, Eugene HELIMSKY/ Hamburg and José Andrés ALONSO DE LA FUENTE (Vitoria/Barcelona) This article is reffering to another inscription found also there, THE BUYLA INSCRIPTION. On probable Tungus-Manchurian origin of the Buyla inscription from Nagy-Szentmiklós (preliminary communication) Eugene Helimski (Hamburg) Studia Etymologica Cracoviensia 5 (2000) Kraków 2000 http://www.kroraina.com/hungar/helimski.htm
“1.1. The famous treasure of Nagy-Szentmiklós was found exactly two hundred years ago, in 1799. It consists of 23 gold bowls, dishes, jars, and cups, and belongs now to the exposition of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. It was found in Banat, near the village of Nagy-Szentmiklós (today Sînnicolau Mare, to the north-west of Temesvár-Timişoara). The detailed description of the treasure and the history of studies is given in László, Rácz 1983; see also an ample bibliography compiled by Mária Ivanics (in Göbl, Róna-Tas 1995: 59-77).
There are no direct indications for dating and attribution of the objects. Most estimates place them in the period between the 5th and the 10th centuries, the first half of the 9thcentury being the most wide-spread (and still, rather likely then proven) dating, see Róna-Tas 1990: 9; in his more recent publication András Róna-Tas (1997: 110) gives however preference to the second half of the 8th century . Therefore the treasure is usually referred to as “Avar” or “Late Avar”, sometimes also as “Protobulgarian” (e.g. Mavrodinov 1943 as well as later literature from Bulgaria). This, however, does not necessarily characterise its provenance: as far as analogues to goldsmiths’ work, vessel forms, pictorial representations, and ornamental motives are concerned, references has been made to the Carpathian basin and to the entire Eurasian steppe zone, to Byzantium and to Southern Europe, to the Caucasus and to Iran.
1.2. The objects belonging to this treasure have inscriptions of three kinds which received recently a detailed palaeographic analysis in Göbl, Róna-Tas 1995. An inscription in Greek (the reading of which remains non-unproblematic, see Vékony 1973) is repeated twice on two paired bowls. The famous “Buyla inscription” (Inscr. 17 on buckled bowl [Schnallenschale] XXI) is written also with Greek letters, but in a non-Greek language.13 objects have short inscriptions written with an unknown script of the “runiform” type. It has been confirmed many times and by various study methods that the Nagy-Szentmiklós inscriptions differ not only in language and script, but also were not made by the same hand and therefore may originate from different (geographically as well as chronologically) artisan shops – as well as the gold objects themselves. “ ……………………………………………………………………….
However, this circumstance could not be taken into consideration in the numerous attempts to decipher the text: the Turkic languages do not know an ending like –Vgi in systematic grammatical use. It is Tungus-Manchurian that fits this demand: here one of the most frequent, wide-spread and archaic verbal forms of 3Sg. is reconstructed as *-ra-gī (with harmonic variants like *-re-gī and with variants determined partly by the assimilation of the initial consonants and partly by the conjugation class like *–da-gī, ………………………………… 3. It is almost universally assumed that the engraver – poor devil! – knew neither the Turkic language nor the Greek script, and that nobody possessing this knowledge cared to control his work. The entire philological experience proves, however, that assumptions of that kind (and they occur, regretfully, too frequently) signalise only the inadequacy of interpretations – not of the texts in question. ============================ Despite I read at least one of articles wich is reffering to this inscription, only yestarday I had a declic, some facts catched my attention, as those two: FIRST : We have in Buyla inscription the word: “4.3.3. ΗΤΖΙΓΗ.
The participial aorist of TM *iče– ‘to see, to observe’ should be probably reconstructed as *ičeregī or (if the stem belonged to the conjugation classes II or III, see Benzing 1955: 123-128) resp. *ičesegī or *ičedegī. However, the consonantal stem in Even ič– and Orok it-, as well as the variation of vowels in the second syllable in the derivatives of other TM languages (cf. Evenki ičulī– ‘to check, to investigate’, Nanai ičuči– ‘to show’, Solon isȫ– ‘to appear’, see TMS 2: 334-335)/” That ΗΤΖΙΓΗ sounded me as hell close to IZIGI, ICIGI, YAZIGI ! 2-ND: I found in the papers reffering to this inscription, that in tungusik linguistic family, more precise in OROK language, there is a grammar structure (used as suffixe, but also as a word) -DDoo. Exactly as we have on Tartaria round tablet ! cum avem pe tablita rotunda de la Tartaria ! (we have DDoo upon canaanite and greek alphabets)
From https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/gengo1939/1956/30/1956_30_77/_pdf by J IKEGAMI
INFLECTION OF OROK. The substantive endings are as follows.
-ba•san object which is subjected to motion .•t
-la•sa place, with some extension in space or time, where motion
occurs or a state exists.•t
-ndoo•sa co-agent.•t
-ddoo•s’as (something) designated for someone.’•t …the simple designative case-ending -ddoo can appear as a word.

BUT ANYBODY IS REALISING (beeing a question of logic and common-sense) CANNOT BE USED BOTH IN THE SAME TIME ! ======================
In the before posting I’ve found in the signs using khazar alphabet, letters CS(Ci) and J(i).In this case, reading from R>L, we have ICsI (ICI) and from L>R “CsI ” .( see above in Even, ič , and in TM(tarim-manciurian?) *iče :”to see, observe“) Note. It is not the time to rush, aserting that in this portion the writing is L>R or R>L, as long as the result is quite the same (ICI visa Ci), nor regarding the reading ; nobody is casing me !

From Daxia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daxia
Daxia, Ta-Hsia, or Ta-Hia (Chinese: 大夏; pinyin: Dàxià; literally: ‘Great Xia’) was apparently the name given in antiquity by the Han Chinese to Tukhara or Tokhara: the main part of Bactria, in what is now northern Afghanistan, and parts of southern Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
The name “Daxia” first appears in Chinese accounts from the 3rd century BCE, to designate a kingdom in the far west – possibly a consequence of the first contacts with the expansion of the Greco-Bactrian Kingdom – and then is used by the explorer Zhang Qian in 126 BCE to designate Bactria.
It is possible that “Daxia”, in part, conflated or confused Tokhara with the country of the Dahae (on the south-eastern shores of the Caspian Sea), who were usually known in classical Chinese sources as the Dayi (Chinese: 大益; pinyin: Dayi).[1]
Daxia is mentioned by, for instance, Chapter VIII (Xiao Kuang) of the Guanzi (7th Century BCE): “In the west [Duke Huan]… having passed through the valleys of the Taihang and Bier, took captive the chief of the Da Xia. Further to the west, he subjugated the Xi Yu of Liusha, and for the first time the Rong People of Qin were obedient.” (Taihang and Bier are located along the Shanxi-Hebei border in China.)

Yuezhi pl (plural only) 1.An ancient Indo-European people who originally settled in the arid grasslands of the eastern Tarim Basin area, in what is today Xinjiang and western Gansu, in China, before migrating to Transoxiana, Bactria and then northern South Asia, where one branch of the Yuezhi founded the Kushan Empire.

Now, even the above demonstration would be tempting, attractive or convincing, there are remaining twoo main hipothesys regarding the tablets origin, both with quite equal chances, every of them having PRO/plus and CONTRA/minus arguments:
“FROM ASIA” MIGRATION
PLUS-es: – there were such real migrations wich left traces in Romania – reinforce dacians origin theories advanced by scientists from tens of years beforese regarding asian-related origin. – if related to Kushan/Tocharian people, then were of I.European origin, there is not more the problem of tablets origin or who brought them – there were found other inscriptions alike, true few but exists. Not anymore “the singleton difficulty/issue” – a long series of question marks, aspects and inadvertencies are cleared up with this hipothesys (magic rituals<>shaman? ; how could somebody know so many signs some close to our time) – the presence of D-signs exactly where an “secret,hidden message” whas supposed to be and where could have true writing and an clear-concrete message, is explained.
MINUS-es: – consequence ,not so old age for the tablets. – artefacts found close-by indicates another origin, Aegean.Cycladic one. – if population was related to avars, tungus (and wonder wich else), that population risk not to be Indo-European. – if related to Kushan they used another type of writing! – maximal similarity (as a whole) of the signs with sumerian proto-cuneiform-ones, folowed by Aegean/Cretan/anatolian ones. – signs D not appearing only after 1500- 1800 B.C. in old-Canaanite and archaic Greek writings.
AN CLOSE, EUROPEAN ORIGIN
PLUSes – greater age (than khazar,avar,etc. variant) – artefacts found close-by similar of that Cycladic -; tablets could be as well carian. – there are real chances for signs transmission from Sumer (early minoans were in fact sumerian migrants/Papakitsos and Kenanidis) via Syria to Aegean and as consequence an increased age. – signs maximal similarities with (in order) : Sumerian , Aegean& Anatolian.
MINUSes – improbable (unatested) population movement from Aegean to North, rather reverse. – ramaining unsolved issue where were inscribed the tablets or who brought them (remain the hipothesys of “lost/unknown traveller/trader” – there are no similar inscriptions by us, there are unique/singletons. – there were not used D-signs in proto sumerian script nor in Aegean ones, only in Old-canaanite and archaic Greek ones.
ADITIONAL DOCUMENTING
1. AMULETS. Among the Tungus groups and Manchus there is a belief that there are various things which may bring luck in different branches of human activity. Such things are usually incidentally found in the form of natural abnormalities, monstrosities, rare unknown things, etc. If the Tungus happen to learn something new along this line they include it into their complex without any hesitation. Owing to this there now is in vogue a belief into the possibility of finding treasures, ever-lasting food, etc., borrowed from the Chinese, Mongols and even Russians. The function of the amulets in Tungus life is not great, but they never refuse to collect them and keep, for nobody exactly knows what is true and what is not, but to keep these things is not difficult. Yet one likes to have a hope of finding a fortune, or luck. The coincidence of «luck» with finding or using amulets often brings confirmation of the supposedly existing correlation between amulets and luck. Owing to the character of this hypothesis of the amulets and particular hypotheses regarding relationship between particular amulets and particular forms (cases) of luck are subject to great variations, not only among the ethnical groups but also in the life of generations and individuals. I will here give a list of amulets which, as a matter of fact, may be extended by more detailed investigation of the groups and even individuals. Naturally the amulets are much more fashionable among the Tungus who are in close contact with the other ethnical groups, and especially among those who are under the Chinese influence.
The amulets are called among the Manchus and Tungus groups influenced by them, — bobai, [cf. Dahur baobai (Poppe), – «precious», «precious thing»; Manchu baobai (Zaxarov), – id. from Chinese bao-bei] while among the reindeer Tungus of Manchuria and those of the Amur Government it is called ajeya. Amulets may be carried on the cradles, with the tobacco bag, attached to the spirits. Many amulets have been formed from the placings for spirits and special things used for protection. Therefore to establish the line of demarcation between an amulet and former placing for spirits or protector against them, is impossible. Such is also the Tungus attitude in this matter. If such an amulet is found and if it is followed by luck in hunting there must be given sacrifice to the local spirits or to the spirit which is held responsible for the success. Once I met with the hypothesis that all amulets are produced by the spirits and therefore one must consider any amulet as indicative of future luck to be produced by the spirits, — the spirits therefore must have regular sacrifices from those who carry the amulets, and if the sacrifice is not given it will be very bad for those who carry the amulets. Indeed, this idea puts a certain limitation upon the collecting of amulets. However, this is not a general belief.
Here are a few examples of articles used for amulets: ……………………………”
