An important finding was unearthed 20 years ago, in Dispilio, near the city of Kastoria, in Macedonia, a region of Northern Greece, by the archaeological team of George Chourmouziadis, a professor of prehistoric archaeology. The Dispilio Tablet is the oldest known engraved wooden tablet ever found. According to the professor, some symbols are similar to some letters of the Greek alphabet and some others to the Linear A script. If this proves to be the case with these findings, the whole history of writing should be reconsidered.
