[edit] Theban Letters.

By V.H. Frater N.O.M.

In the Flying Roll which explains the Yetziratic formation of an image of Adonai ha-Aretz it will be noted that the name is written upon the girdle in Theban characters. Many members having asked for this alphabet, I now issue this roll to furnish the required knowledge.

[Here follows a table of Theban letters, as found in Barrett's The Magus, on the plate facing p. 64 of Book II]

These letters are recorded by Peter of Abano, also called Petrus di Appone who derived from Honorius the Theban. This Hononus is said by many to have been a Pope. There have been four Popes named Honorius, but neither [sic] of them was called Theban Peter of Abano flourished circa A.D. 1300. This Alphabet is found in Cornelius Agrippa's Works and in Barrett's Magus.
