MODERATORS
You missed my personal favorite: a viking burial mound on whose walls, some seven or eight feet up, is written, "Tholfir Kolbeinsson carved these runes high up."
Viking men averaged out at 5'7" (173cm), so he must have been lifted by someone.
Ancient graffiti is glorious.
Almost as endearing as ancient pet mausoleums.
