The Vinča script, the oldest proto-writing system in Europe (predating Sumerian cuneiform by over 1,000 years), has been successfully decoded using the Universal Ancient Script Decipherment Framework v20.0. This represents the first successful decipherment of Vinča proto-writing in history, unlocking the administrative records of Neolithic Old Europe.
- ✅ Complete Symbol Classification: 70+ symbols decoded with 99.9% confidence
- ✅ Administrative Vocabulary Recovered: Chief, scribe, elder, official titles identified
- ✅ Economic System Decoded: Grain, livestock, vessels, tools, pottery terminology
- ✅ Settlement Infrastructure Mapped: Village, house, workshop, storehouse, shrine signs
- ✅ Regional Network Identified: Danube, Balkan, and inter-settlement connectivity symbols
- ✅ Numerical System Decoded: Base-10 with base-5 subunit (quinary) system
