Researchers in the United Kingdom have found that an ancient Greek inscription on a 2,000-year-old marble tablet is actually something resembling a yearbook for a graduating class, according to a new translation.
The inscription sat in the National Museums Scotland collection for over 130 years without being properly looked at until researchers discovered the document, according to Peter Liddel of the University of Manchester.
How and why this artifact is in this museum and not in Greece??
I wanna see the ancient Greek equivalent of “see you next year,” ” you’re cool,” and that weird S everyone draws.
