    Wait until this guy learns how people used to send letters instead of emails and that paper was used instead of word.

      During the period this tablet was made, letters were also written in clay. My favorite part of this is clay envelopes were also made for documents, and they sometimes contained similar information that we place on envelopes now. Other times they had a condensed version of the document instead
