The characters of previous ancient civilizations have a common denominator with the characters currently used. This seems to be an opinion shared by many researchers.

It is no wonder that the late ancient civilizations, which are connected with modern civilizations, inherited knowledge from the previous ancient civilizations.

However, every time from the early to the late, from the late to the modern and the passing, there are lost characters. This is no wonder either.

In the case of phonetic characters, the pronunciations that used to be distinguished may disappear as the speech accents. The three letters "Eh", "Eh" and "Hee" are good examples of how pronunciation can no longer be distinguished. Of course, on the contrary, there may be new increases.

The problem this time is that there are a lot of letters that seem to have been lost among the ancient civilizations of the previous period.

Perhaps the shape of the vocal organs has also changed significantly.

Ancient people were lizard-type and octopus type, and they used special sounds that could not be pronounced by modern people. There are so many letters of ancient civilization in the previous period compared to modern times.

However, I don't think so...

I am bothered by the weeds of the field as I drain them.

"How about that, Ash? Can you really do this?"

As he draws weeds next door, his father David speaks loudly and enthusiastically.

"Reading books doesn't increase the number of spring wheat. This is how I take care of the field when I have time to do such a thing. That's a fine man. We've been doing that for generations."

He's not really a bigot, he's a serious father.

And I say generation after generation, but my father bragged that there was a man who started a soldier in the city, maybe an uncle.

Nothing, it's not proof that we're doing farming with the pride of our family. Maybe there was nothing else I could do.

Nevertheless, we do not believe that farmers are worse off than military personnel. It is an important profession that is essential for civilized society. I understand that with deep knowledge and broad tolerance.

"Sure, reading a book doesn't make the field any better."

"Of course! Books are useless! It's a source of laziness!

My father just doesn't understand the book.

Someday I will persuade you not to regret it.

I will take care of the field silently as I hammer my father properly.

Interestingly enough, by the way, agriculture in this village is scientific.

Curiously, given the level of civilization that comes from villagers' conversations and material circumstances, it is scientific.

I am not particularly familiar with agriculture either, but I work in rotation in this village. It also uses what is known as round-tree agriculture, which is a fairly advanced idea.

First, the field is divided into compartments where different harvests are planted.

In one compartment, winter wheat is planted in late autumn and harvested in spring. Another compartment is planted with cuttlefish and potatoes, which are harvested in the early summer. In yet another compartment, legumes and summer wheat are planted and harvested.

Then, in the following year, what is planted in the compartment is replaced with another compartment. That's how it works.

Otherwise, this farming method would have become relatively modern.

Of course, in some regions, the same farming method should have been invented and used from a long experience, so it is not impossible even if it is carried out in the surrounding countryside.

But when I look at my father's thoughts abundantly, I come up with a more persuasive hypothesis.

I wonder if this is the agricultural method used by ancient civilizations.

I don't know how two ancient civilizations were destroyed - no, it seems that one of them was destroyed by a monster, but the monster was the cause of the destruction - but some of them survived because of the remnants of modern times.

Among them, many things were taken away by the tyrants of time, but the work of supporting food was preserved.

When I think about it, I feel that I can see strange concepts in various places I have seen and heard in the past nine years. Hygiene, medical care, supplies and technology are overwhelmingly inadequate, but at least they are not running wild.

I can only hope for the legacy of ancient civilization.

A luxurious day in the memory of a previous life that seemed to be out of reach. Hope can be regained even if it is only a part of it or just a fraction of it.

"We must decipher the ancient language...."

Last time, I said I grew up saying it's not good to dream too much.

But I am undoubtedly a nine-year-old now. Let's have a lot of dreams.

Rather, the real world is too desperate, so there is no big difference when you end up hopelessly.

After drinking the lethal dose of poison, he said, "Can I have another poison? The result remains unchanged. The analogy may be a little strange, but I feel that way.

In any case, we can't live long in this rural social situation.

My father seems to be in his mid-twenties, but he looks ten years older than his age. A man in his forties is a fine old man, and a man in his sixties is a monster.

This life is short. Why don't we have a dream and go after it with all our might?

All right, I'm hopeless positively.

Chest tremors are the result of passion. Never forget that tears are spreading in your grief.

"All right, Ash, let's take a break!

It's time for a break. This amount of labor is hard for immature children. I can't think of a nine-year-old with a bumpy waist in my previous life.

As I stretch out, I mark my feet with the branches of the tree that I use for my work.

It's a landmark that we've done so much work. My father does the same, and other farmers use it.

Write something like a symbol, not just draw a single line. My father, who hates books, says that the old field is a curse that gets better.

Curse - These irrational customs are the natural level of civilization in this village.

But I don't hate this curse either.

I think it is absolutely necessary that life be so tough that it gives you peace of mind even if there is no basis for it. It is honestly preferable that it be in such a harmless form.

If it were a sacrificial barbarism, I'm a little unconfident that I'm still alive.

That's why I like this curse.

Hmm?

When I looked at the curse mark with a gentle feeling, I thought of it.

Does this look like a kind of letter to you?

"Huh?

I'm impressed by my sudden thoughts.

Agricultural methods that may have been passed down from ancient civilization. The curse inherited from ancient times by farmers practicing the farming method may also be remnants of ancient civilization.

It's very suspicious from the premise, but I don't have any other clues, so let's think about it with the intention of playing.

As a letter, what does it stand for? Because it is a curse of rich relations, does it have the meaning of rich, celebrating, or protecting against crops?

Or, it doesn't matter if it's a curse, it's the end of the work, so it ends here.

What's the point of this short, simple mark?

Is it an abbreviation of some word? Or has it been scraped by only a part of its original mark over the years?

Instead of a long formal name, it is often a good idea to have a conversation with only initials. Alternatively, even if the original is a plurality of characters, it may have been synthesized shortly. The company logo was used as a single symbol along with the company acronym.

In the case of a logo, even though it is a combination of phonetic characters, I would like to classify it into phonetic characters that are close to pictures and shapes in order to represent a long company name with one of the logo marks.

If this happens, there are too many possibilities to converge.

The clarification of the status quo is beyond my control.

But I came up with one thing in the process of thinking.

The book of ancient civilizations from the previous period that Father Folke showed me. There are too many types of characters compared to modern languages.

Wouldn't ideographic and phonetic characters be a combined language?

Like "Hiragana" and "Kanji".
