"Latinized script" edit

It should be made clear that the Mantiklos Apollo is not a multi-lingual artefact as cf. the Rosetta Stone, i. e. the "Latinized script" mentioned does not exist as a physical artefact and is only mentioned here to make the Greek text easier to read for non-Grecophones. Just saying, as I first read the passage as if it really held the same Greek inscription in both Greek script and in Old Italic script and hence, I was stunned to find the mention of a supposed letter w in Old Italic. Even so, the transliteration includes a few errors (which pointed me to originally assume a multi-lingual artefact, where a Greek inscriptor would use the correct letters for the Greek part and partly incorrect Old Italic letters that only optically resemble original Greek letters), for example υ does not transliterate to u (which would be ου) but to y, and χ transliterates to ch, not to x (which would be ξ). --79.242.203.134 (talk) 11:19, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
