Row of six dark signs on a pale strip, shown as a find from Marion tomb 59; the signs do not look like jewellery. — Photograph: Swedish Cyprus Expedition, 1927–31. Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm, C03223r. Public domain (CC0).

Description

A narrow strip of pale grey card shows six dark marks in a row. The marks are looped and hooked strokes, the first group more complex than the rest, and they read as signs or letters rather than an object. No metal surface, jewellery shape or ornament of a piece is visible.
