Why do you call it a "tablet"?

Why do you think it has "signs" on it?

What evidence is there that the marks drawn correspond to marks
deliberately made on it?

If someone tossed some alphabet-soup macaroni in the air, would you
interpret the positions where they landed as encoding a "message"?

If someone designed wallpaper for a baby's room with letters scattered
randomly over it, would you search for a message in it?

If someone handed you a drawing of something that had some w shapes,
some boxes, and some short lines all over it, would you assume it bore
a message?

I said a fake, or Phoenician. The thermoluminescence
dating carried out at the university of Oxford on the
inscriptions from Glozel yielded three groups of ages:
third century BC to first century AD, thirteenth century,
and 1983. The latter inscriptions are obviously fakes.

So now you're claiming that the "Phoenician tablet" is from someplace
called "Glozel"?

The pit at the hamlet Glozel near Vichy is believed to
have been filled up in the Middle Ages. None of the
inscriptions is Magdalenian. Neither of Atlantian origin.
If it were Magdalenian, we would find similar signs
in caves, Lascaux, Altamira, and so on. In any case,
no theory can be built on dubious artefacts, one must
always start from hundred per cent genuine artefacts.
We know enough of the Magdalenian era to build on
solid hypotheses - as I do, starting from Lascaux and
other caves.-

Did this somehow have something to do with the posting to which you
attached it?
