: Another question which come to mind are why are they of a circular form. If
: they were some sort of language would they not use more variation of form.
I think you made some very astute points. The math references are pretty complex, yes, and it's basically just showing that they were obviously capable of doing their calculus. The thing I wanted to point out about their language that you didn't fully get was that with circles there are infinite variations. How many sides are there to a circle? How many degrees? Infinite. It is just that our limited human capabilities have a hard time grasping this concept. I think that it is very likely that they used these in sequence, as in numbers and letters. So that an attack group could be designated "A3" and so on.
