Archaeologists unearth tiny 3,500-year-old clay tablet following an earthquake гей порно геей

Archaeologists have uncovered a tiny 3,500-year-old tablet inscribed with cuneiform writing during excavations at a site in Turkey that could shed light on what life was like during the Late Bronze Age.

Cuneiform, one of the oldest forms of writing, was used across the ancient Middle East.
Cuneiform recorded Sumerian, Akkadian, and other languages of Mesopotamia, the region where the world’s earliest known civilization developed that’s now modern-day Iraq. Highly educated scribes created the distinctive wedge-shaped characters using reeds on clay tablets.

The newly found tablet, which dates back to the 15th century BC, appears to have served as an itemized receipt. Written in Akkadian cuneiform, the ancient inscription describes the purchase of a large amount of furniture.

“We believe that this tablet, weighing 28 grams, will provide a new perspective in terms of understanding the economic structure and state system of the Late Bronze Age,” said Mehmet Ersoy, Turkey’s minister of culture and tourism, in a statement.
