Flying Roll XXXII
Theban Letters
Issued by 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 fiDm Honorius the Theban. This Hononus is said by many to
have been a Pope. There have been four Popes named Honorius, but neither
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.
