Inscription Reconstructor – restore the missing text
Reconstruct damaged inscriptions, analyse archaeological context and write words in ancient scripts through interactive, escalating challenges.
Work like an epigrapher
The answer is not preassembled
Read the find card, determine the script and direction, then reconstruct the missing reading. Expert mode adds convincing distractors and removes direct guidance.
Scripts from several civilisations
Challenges draw on cuneiform, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Phoenician, runes, Linear B and more. Sign values, reading order and historical context all matter.
Learning through reconstruction
Dragging or typing only records your answer. The real work is transliteration, rejecting false leads and defending a plausible restoration.
