A wooden tablet with faded inscriptions in Greek.
This artifact is a rectangular wooden tablet showing inscriptions which appear to have been carved into the surface. The writing is predominantly in Greek and shows signs of wear, likely due to age. Portions of the text are faded or damaged, making complete interpretation difficult. There are two small holes present, possibly for mounting or binding.
