Decipherment of the Rongorongo Script under the Wikaira Decipherment Framework`
This scientific working paper presents the decipherment of the Rongorongo Script (Rapa Nui / Easter Island) under the Wikaira Decipherment Framework. Fluted wooden tablets (kohau rongorongo) carved with parallel channels were engineered to protect raised glyphs during handling. Using continuous reverse-boustrophedon syntax, inscriptions link clan lineage headers directly to marine catches, sweet potato tubers, obsidian adzes (toki), and labor allocations to balance community distribution accounts.
