Without translations it's not useful either. I'm not against writings but we can glean way more info from DNA and archeology than glyphs. Pictographs are useful

- s1artibartfast 3y agoObviously that depends on what you want to learn. DNA is not going to tell you the hopes, dreams, or thoughts of early peoples. I have zero care for information as a general concept. I care about specific types of information. The funny thing about translations are that if you have lots of texts, it makes them easier to translate
