Anyone have any comments about the numbers proposed for the Phoenician encoding?
The proposed PHOENICIAN NUMERAL TWENTY is actually a ligature of two PHOENICIAN NUMERAL TENs and should be encoded as:
TEN plus ZWJ plus TEN
It may derive from such a ligature, but I don't think it is one. Indeed our digits 2 and 3 are original ligatures of strokes.
