CuneiPainter1 CuneiPainter2


CuneiPainter enables you to paint cuneiform characters using your fingers on the touchscreen of your smartphone. The app recognizes the four stroke types of cuneiform as defined by the Gottstein System:

  • left to right (A)
  • up to down (B)
  • down right to up left (C)
  • down left to up right (D)

Wedges are recognized as class C and not as class E as also suggested by Gottstein.

This app uses the Akkadian font by Andrea Vianello as provided in the Open Source package ttf-ancient-fonts
