Take note of the number of Ancient lines symbols for each line (A list of the 12 ancient lines symbols can be found on Stella’s Blog)

You will get this :

3 AKSUMITE
7 CAHOKIAN
3 OLMEC
6 HARAPPAN
2 MU
4 KOORI
2 SUMERIAN

Now, you need to find an easy way to create a word with the numbers and the line names.

The solution is to use the number as an index in the ancient line name. For example, 3 AKSUMITE, means you have to use the third letter of AKSUMITE : S.

3 AKSUMITE
7 CAHOKIAN
3 OLMEC
6 HARAPPAN
2 MU
4 KOORI
2 SUMERIAN

You will get this final list of letters : SAMPURU

This word means fake food :
