More ancient Tablet and Writing discovered
Ancient tablet bears writing, to scientists' surprise
A 2-inch-by-3-inch clay tablet is older than expected — dating to 3,350 years ago — and is found at a site in Greece where researchers did not expect to find writing. http://www.latimes.com/news/science/...,6337523.story |

Wanna know the absolutely coolest thing about the articla? The guy's name is COSMOPOULIS (Great Sky City!!)
Maybe it is a fragment of a letter. "Dear Pat, how are you? We are fine. ...) but only the salutation survived? |
