INSCRIPTIONS (from Lat. _inscribere_, to write upon), the general term
for writings cut on stone or metal, the subject matter of epigraphy. See
generally WRITING and PALAEOGRAPHY. Under this heading it is convenient
here to deal more specifically with four groups of ancient inscriptions,
Semitic, Indian, Greek and Latin, but further information will be found
in numerous separate articles on philological subjects. See especially
CUNEIFORM, BABYLONIA AND ASSYRIA, SUMER, BEHISTUN, EGYPT (_Language and
Writing_), ETHIOPIA, PHOENICIA, ARABIA, HITTITES, SABAEANS, MINAEANS,
ETRURIA, AEGEAN CIVILIZATION, CRETE, CYPRUS, BRITAIN, SCANDINAVIAN
