letters for Bellaratha

The Letter King Proetus cloaked his indignation, not wishing to violate the sacred obligations of hospitality by doing harm to his guest. But he contrived his revenge by asking Bellerophon to deliver a letter on his behalf to King Iobates of Lycia, his father-in-law. This is somewhat surprising in that writing hadn't been invented yet, except perhaps a rudimentary form used for inventory-keeping on the island of Crete and certain parts of the mainland. No wonder Bellerophon couldn't make out the meaning of the message he was to deliver. Either that or the letter was sealed - although for that matter "letters" hadn't been invented yet either. So bellerotha was not excuted for asking to lay with the kingdom through the queen and the female lethitic right that was also in play. instead King Proetus sent him with a letter on his behalf to his father in law King Iobates of Lycia, thus the king gave belleratha a letter on his behalf representing him to his wifes line as well. This note opr sign was sent during a time before words, which may place balleratha before even the cronian gods. the language was that of symbols and releyethic like those of ancient egyptian priests, thus belleron may have been in this type of time wjere language was made secret to control people and people fell to illeteracy, however the liniar A languages that are releyethic priesta laguages, liniar b is the common language, so bel;erothon seems to be at the beginning of language where it was first written as divine notes and administrative symbols bellerothon was unable to make out the secret language as he was a commoner and knew only tthe common language and symbols. thus the note was in scret code. the letter could have been sealed or on code even if laguage did exist in that time, for the gods it did but many commernors knew only a few symbol and laguage. thus the letter was sealed and secretive just in case anyone tried to read and misuse it, it may have allso been in secret onld language meants to incite the ritual and rights. this letter could have been on a slab or stonem before letters as in notes and suffisticated language written existed. from http://www.mythweb.com/heroes/bellerophon/index.html
