guy Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) Twenty-one curse tablets have been discovered in a Roman-era cemetery located south of Paris. These tablets, which were buried with many bodies discovered during the excavation of a hospital, date from the first to third century AD. One of the studied tablets was written in Latin and a poorly documented Gaulish language. https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/curse-tablet-found-in-roman-era-grave-in-france-targets-enemies-by-invoking-mars-the-god-of-war#:~:text=Excavation of a Roman-era,inscribed in Latin and Gaulish.&text=Archaeologists in France have discovered,written in an extinct language. https://greekreporter.com/2025/01/15/ancient-curse-tablets-roman-grave-france/ Here is a previous post on an obscene curse tablet found in Greece.
