<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aleph, post: 7952622, member: 89969&quot;]Donna, the Sumerian cuneiform tablet is incredible!&nbsp; I didn’t realize there were any of these outside of institutional collections especially the British museum.&nbsp; There are so few things from this distant time period.&nbsp; It’s easy to overlook that civilization is 6000 years old but the vast majority of what we talk about, e.g., Greek and Roman coins, come from the <i>second half</i> of the civilization rime frame.&nbsp; The typical Roman was closer to us in time than to Sumerian.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
