TARTARIA ROUND TABLET
CRETAN HIEROGLYFIC LINEAR A/B APPROACH
Acnowledgement
I am studing this very tablet from more than 10 years.Soon I was atracted bewitched/enchanted by the apparent close appearance of signs to those of archaic greek. (signs Heta, zeta,etc.)
Despite my effortts, even if I've found most of the signs in
-archaic greek
-cretan hieroglyphics/linear A/B
-carian
-& others, e.g. venetic,iberian etc.
They had not depass in every writings an average percentage of say 80-85% of founded signs.
Exemple:
- For archaic linear A,B,could not explain such early appearance of D-shape signs.Also the bow-arrow sign and >> sign.
- For cretan hierogliphic show an archaic primitive egyptian/anatolian-influenced writing.Not matching of signs/icons placed right-downward quarter.Possible there are comlex, religios ideograms.
- For carian most of the signs were found.Highest average ! 90%. But pitty,not all.Dificulty arouse not cause one is expecting, say cannot find signs, but by cause they were used different signs-shapes-letterss-readings in different ages and places, despite their very greek origin.Not even talk about the carian language wich is partly understoo only be 1-2 men (e.g.Adiego) out of entire world.
- Other European writings as italic-venetic,iberian ond others from Europe had show an phenomenom like frome some phoenician source dispersed out of control of supposed original signs usage.
No one writing system could be matched entirely.
Don’t believe, this happened some-how easyer when using the proto-cuneiform sumerian library of signs.
It seems that sumerians begin to use signs, sumerians allready wrote novels before aegeans passed from cretan hieroglyphic to linear A> linear B.
There are hundred/thousends years when they used writing before Aegean/Europe begun to choose change between signs and use of writing.(3000 BC sumerian proto hierogliphic <visa> 2000-1500 cretan hieroglyphic linear A.).
Despite this difficulty, only for comparison purposes I made all approaches to try to read and to compare the results.

This shape is conducting me (and not a single opinion)to the idea of kind of portable altar with flames on upper side:
The sign in a way is close to cretan hieroglyphic sign DE, (180deg turned/upside down)
But much close is linear A(also upside-down),sign AB 45

and LINEAR B "DE"

Minoan snake goddess figurines - Revolvy
https://www.revolvy.com/.../index.php?s=Minoan%20snake%20goddess%20figurines...
The snake goddess's Minoan name may be related with A-sa-sa-ra, a possible interpretation of inscriptions found in Linear A texts. Although Linear A is not yet deciphered, Palmer relates tentatively the inscription a-sa-sa-ra-me which seems to have accompanied goddesses, with the Hittite išhaššara, which means …
A-SA-SA-RA
Syrio-Hittite Venus 18-1000 BC Central and southwest Anatolia northern Syria
The goddess Astarte is much like the contemporary Venus we see on Cyprus. Large holes apparently for ring decoration (referred to as being "pegged"), palm sized with stubby arms are a common style among other cultures too. The pinched face is found on the stubby armed figurines as well as the pillar shaped statuettes.

"From these data, it may be deduced that the most important deity, with (if we include the abbreviated instances) 17 occurrences in sum, is Asasara, 3 who has been convincingly identified with the Semitic mother-goddess Asherat or Asherah. The most characteristic symbol of this goddess is the double axe, which in writing functions for the expression of the initial vowel of her name, a (E36 or CHIC 042), and as such may be used on its own to refer to her in abbreviation.4 On the south pillar of the pillar crypt in Malia (see Fig. 75), the symbol of Asherah occurs twice in combination with that of a star with either six or eight points. Now, against the backdrop of the identification of the main goddess as Asherah, it stands to reason that we are dealing here with the symbol of the daughter of this mothergoddess, Ashtarte, whose name originates from PIE *h2stḗr- “star”, but we can as yet not be certain of this as we lack an instance of this divine name written out in full. However, this same shortcoming does not affect the symbol of the storm-god in the form of a trident on the north pillar of this same pillar crypt at Malia, because the hieroglyphic inscriptions from the palace of Malia and Quartier Mu at the same site positively allow for the latter’s identification as Luwian Tar˙u(nt). In these texts, namely, the name of Tarkhunt occurs in the form of the goat’s head sign TARKU (E65 or CHIC016) as much as 11 times, and is in frequency outmatched only by that of Asherah referred to in abbreviation by the double axe as much as 12 times (note that in two instances, # 098 and # 112, both deities occur together in the same text). On the other hand, it should be realized that the storm-god may also be referred to by Semitic forms of address like Haddu or Baªal, as it happens to be the case in the text of the discus from Phaistos (# 333), and the altar stone from Malia (# 328) which according to its legend ultimately originates from Skheria (= Hagia Triada) also in the Mesara. In reality, this change from a Luwian to a Semitic form of address for the storm-god may not have been as fundamental for the Minoans as it might seem to us at first sight, as on the A-side of the discus of Phaistos the storm-god is referred to in his Luwian form Tar˙unt, again, by his symbol the trident or bolt of lightning"
