The Hattusa Green Stone is a roughly cubic block of what is believed to be nephrite standing in the remains of the Great Temple at Hattusa, capital of the Hittites in the late Bronze Age. Now on the hill above Boğazkale, in the Turkish Province of Çorum, Hattusa is a World Heritage Site.
The original purpose is unknown, but serves as a tourist attraction today.
The stone measures 69cm (27in) per side, and weighs about 1,000 kilograms (2,200lb). It is supposed by some to have had a religious use or purpose, but what that may have been is unknown. The suggestion has been made that it may have been merely the base of a statue, however the stone is the only one of its kind found at Hattusa. --WP, with some JE edits
So, not quite the Voynich Manuscript, but an interesting object nonetheless. And quite a bit heavier(!)
In the Lebanese city of Tyre, I visited the ancient ruins & saw an identical stone --u/Msqueefmaker
Interesting thought, but such a measure didn't get invented until well over two millennia later, by the English. Not that it couldn't have been a weight measure of some sort of another.
What do you mean "by the English"?
The English peoples. Via the word "tun." Which was something like ~240 wine gallons.
My source was WP on that.
I'm going to assume that you are some kind of AI thing I'm too tired to figure out a proper name for your perversity.
