SAPIR 861

SIGN 861 — your name in the oldest letters

Type a name: we write it in Hebrew and then in Proto-Sinaitic signs, the script Hebrew letters grew from.

The glyphs are schematic, after the scholarly reconstruction of Proto-Sinaitic (c. 19th–15th c. BCE; see Penn Museum collections and O. Goldwasser). This is a beautiful way to write a name, not an amulet: the sign has no power.
