To anyone who has had the curse of #headlice in their family, it will not be surprizing that the first sentence found to be written with an alphabet in the Bronze Age Canaanite era would be on a lice comb. A lovely story of discovery and #serendipity. #BBC #Reel https://www.bbc.co.uk/reel/video/p0f3svrh/decoding-oldest-known-sentence-written-in-first-alphabet
