Grafenstein tile

Inscription on a tile. The language of this inscription has been the subject of some debate. Some attempts have been made to interpret the text as Slavic, but the general academic view is that it represents a form of Continental Celtic; either simply Gaulish, or Noric (if it should be considered a language separate from Gaulish).
