Sumerian, Ancient Egyptian, Rig
Vedic, Avestan, Chinese and other more ancient civilizations supposedly had a natural language
and/or script. The historical timeline is around 4000BC to 1000BC.
Their language is believed to be natural in the manner it is related to the Universe and its laws. It is not artificial as modern languages are which make arbitrary assignment of word and meaning to natural objects and phenomena. How did these languages originate and what is the science of their structure?
Let us first have a look at some of the ancient languages alphabets to appreciate the diversity in form and alphabet size.

We can observe that there is large diversity in shape of the characters, their total size and also form. How did this happen and what is the reason for this?
This is a very complicated issue and we must ask many more basic questions to understand the background in which languages evolve.
What do we exactly mean by
ancient civilizations? Is there any unique or common distinguishing feature
other than remote timeline? Is it complex architecture, texts or language?
Is ancient science
different from modern science and in what ways?
What do we essentially and
fundamentally understand by the term “meaning”/“knowledge”?
What exactly is our brains understanding of a line segment or a
circle drawn on a piece of paper? We normally and immediately “sense” that it
is real and think no more of it but is it actually “real” in the natural sense
because it disappears if we erase it or burn the paper? So, is our brain or rather
the sensory apparatus, normally, capable or tuned to distinguish between
natural and artificial reality?
Is “meaning”/”knowledge” in
context of Universal Science a direct function of fundamental geometry or form,
vibration frequency of this form and precise numbers and/or ratios?
Are there natural sensory
limits to our understanding of the physical world by observation and
experiments irrespective of advances in technology?
How Natural Process or
Law’s “meaning” which operates in a dynamic 3d world can be encoded in a static
2d form (Hieroglyph, cuneiform,Sign)? How “Time” is accounted for in the 2d sign?
What is the unknown process
of information encoding & compression? What part is missing in a 2d sign to
enable decoding? Is it property of “Time”?
What are the limits to such
encoding? Is presence of higher phonetic alphabet size an indicator of higher
levels of Universal science understanding and its encoding?
How natural sound units
(language alphabets - phonemes, syllables) which operate in 3d are related to
the 2d signs? Do they serve to replicate the underlying vibration frequency encoded
in the sign/form?
In this sense, are phonetic
alphabets the decoding units and “speaking” “chanting” (adding time) the
“right words” (proper sequence of alphabets) of ancient language in the
right pitch and meter the decoding process in the brain to cognize using the
auditory sense via the mind?
Is the encoding &
decoding process free from loss of information or there is a loss? What process
of communication would ensure that there is zero loss?
As a final point, are the
2d signs similar to “snapshots” in time of natural laws?
We notice that these basic questions are not easy to answer and have to simplify it further to try and understand its real scope & dimensions. Let us then consider the
following example by way of analogy of the key issues involved as I understand it;
Universe- Supercomputer
Energy, Matter, Space, Time-
Hardware components
Consciousness/Intelligence-CPU
Natural laws and rules,
physical constants-Operating System
This OS is written in a
unique natural machine language with a defined physical structure and
interrelationships. Geometry, Frequency & number ratios are its building
blocks.
Ancient natural languages
are Software programs that attempted to replicate this natural machine language
locally in order to communicate with the OS & Hardware. There are many
versions of these languages-software programs depending on the understanding of
this machine language by the ancient civilizations. The alphabets are its
building blocks.
The phonetic alphabet size of
the ancient language determines the degree to which they understood the machine
language. Sound or technically Vibration is a Universal feature and Resonance
is transfer of quality or achieving equivalent state between two vibrating
systems.
The sign alphabet was an
attempt to preserve this ancient phonetic knowledge but obviously there was
loss of information for how does one encode a 3d reality in 2d. I could be
wrong if a technique does exist but is unknown to us.
Modern language is an artificial
construct based on arbitrary assignment of words & meaning to objects &
phenomena. It has no natural link with the underlying reality. It was not
developed per se to understand reality but as means of communication and
recording as formalized socioeconomic settlements developed.
However, sometimes and i think randomly modern language letters do come together in a specific arrangement to form a word or phrase that creates a subtle resonance with the underlying reality thru the mind and information transfer takes place in the sub-consciousness level.
