Bone inscriptions
Bone inscriptions are markings or carvings made on bones by ancient peoples. These inscriptions often include symbols, words, or drawings that provided information about the individual, events, or beliefs. They might record names, achievements, or messages and are valuable to archaeologists for understanding the culture, language, and social practices of early societies. Such inscriptions offer a preserved glimpse into human history, revealing how ancient communities communicated and documented their lives before written records became widespread.
