Palmyra Hellenistic Plaque Promoting Motion Powers - AO 20119

(March 4, 2024) The letter style of this text is Etruscan Hellenistic which derives from the Etruscan tradition. Yet this letter style retains some Aegean Island elements making it slightly older than what appears of the Rosetta Stone which is dated to 200 BCE. 

This text is promoting ritual activity to energize the astrological powers to move the fertility fluids of the life network so they can trigger rain and life forms.

The text says:

  1. Nothing is pasturing the patrollers (planets). Emanations are due to the openings.
  2. Energy is not patrolling the life-priests. Energy is from the patrollers.
  3. The revelations from Yahu (Y') and the pasture (astrological night sky) are not from the patrollers.
  4. Those can turn-attention towards the prodders. The patrollers can shape that.
  5. The stuffing (life network) can nourish Yahu (Y').  The prodders (motion powers) can open the drying of the enemy.
  6. Emotion-curses [are not from] the stuffing.  The stuffing can nourish the network-birds
  7. Energy can filter the nourishments involving Ayu.  The same-thing reveals Su.
  8. Lack of eagle-vultures can involve Ayu.  The night be involved with that.
  9. Lack of activity has been revealed. Nourish the activity opening those pasture-powers.
  10. In a similar way, this stillness (death) is caused by a lack of Hu. Eagle-vultures cause starvation.
