Wooden inscribed tablet
from Kastoria of Macedonia
about 7.300 BP
Back in 1993, in a Neolithic lakeshore settlement that occupied an
artificial island near the modern village of Dispilio on Lake Kastoria in the
Kastoria Prefecture, professor George Hourmouziadis and his team unearthed the
Dispilio Tablet (also known as the Dispilio Scripture or the Dispilio Disk), a
wooden tablet bearing inscribed markings (charagmata) that has been carbon
14-dated to about 7.300 BP (5260 BC).
