Morten St George Theory

[-JKP-]

Remember this? You guys say the first character is the Latin letter l (L) but I see a gate there: it's merely an alternative way of writing k whose first stroke is really an i turned vertical and elongated.

No, if you read my various posts on this, you will see that I am not certain the first letter is "l". It has a bend in it. It might be b or k. It's more likely to be "l" but it's not for certain.

Morten: it's merely an alternative way of writing k whose first stroke is really an i turned vertical and elongated."

Do you realize how truly weird this statement is? ALL letters are various other strokes turned or elongated or shortened. That's how letters evolve. That's how they are designed. The letter b is the letter d mirrored. An ell is i elongated without the dot. A medieval f is a medieval s with a crossbar. Noticing a similarity in shape means nothing. You have to DEMONSTRATE that there is a relationship between them that goes beyond the similarity in shape and you haven't done that. You've only pointed out the obvious.
