Ancient Shopping List: A Glimpse into the Past

In Turkey, archaeologists unearthed a small clay tablet from the Bronze Age, inscribed with writing from a language called Akkadian.

This tablet, measuring just over an inch in size, contains a detailed list of furniture, including tables, chairs, and stools that were bought and sold.

The list also reveals information about the people who made these purchases, giving us a glimpse into the economic practices of that era.

This discovery offers valuable insights into how people managed their finances and traded goods in the Late Bronze Age.
