An international team led by French archaeologist François Desset has decoded Linear Elamite, one of the last undeciphered writing systems of the ancient Near East, after more than a decade of research on inscriptions from ancient Iran.
Appreciate how persistent research led to this major discovery! Glad access was granted: "The breakthrough drew on a set of previously inaccessible inscriptions on silver beakers held mainly in the Mahboubian Collection in London." Hoping for even more progress on solving this ancient puzzle.
Archeology is having a moment. Amazing discovery

This is a significant update. Hope it unravels further amazing discoveries.
Sounds interesting. Hopefully big archeology won’t suppress it
Very impressed.
So what does it say?
“Iran is two weeks away from acquiring a nuclear weapon.”
We are two weeks away from having a nuclear bomb 😉
So… what do these inscriptions say?
Congratulations to this team. Deciphering an ancient script without a “key” in another language is quite an accomplishment.
And do any of these texts say anything remotely interesting or is just the usual lists?
So what does the tablet say.
Now when we gonna get a translation ?
Everybody's a comedian.
