The quest to decipher the 4,000-year-old writing system of Linear Elamite had long been considered impossible to crack.
"Of all the writing systems used in Iran, the only one that is truly local – developed within the territory we now call Iran – is Linear Elamite."

The Hand of Irulegi (cool name!) has writing on it, and is from the time of the Vascones, the forerunners of the Basques. The one word that’s been deciphered so far is nearly the same as the modern Basque word for “fortunate”, so it’s probably a good luck amulet. It was not known before that the Vascones were literate before contact with the Romans; this shows that they were.
