Orientation seems to allow for many of the variations. Horizontally or vertically reflected symbols have distinctly different sounds associated with them and a ninety degree rotation also denotes a new symbol entirely. This orientation issue has been the most challenging one when dealing with such young subjects. Their tendency to rotate their work constantly and focus production on such unlikely surfaces makes a consistent baseline impossible. Finally, a future goal of the Philology Department is to explore the historical legacy of this language. Some of the more complex symbols seem to have created as combinations of lesser symbols and assigned a new signifier. This pattern suggests that this language may have evolved over time which contradicts the existing theories. Further research will be recommended in this field as its ramifications may be significant to the overall goals of the project.
