An archeology group just discovered the first known inscription in Euskera language (a.k.a. Basque) and I think it is beautiful at so many levels ๐
We used to think Euskera was mainly non-written and the first samples dated from the 10th century. This makes it the first record of written Euskera, from 150 BC!
I'm no expert, so check these threads in tw:
