*threw it over his head with one hand, according to this.
I’m so proud of Bylon that he got his own wikipedia article. All we know about him is this inscription, yet not the stone but the guy got an article. I wouldn’t have expected the stone to have its own article either but maybe be an example on another article. But now that this exists, I hope someone will write one for Phola as well.
I wonder what he’d think if he knew that because he carved that, his name and the fact that he threw it over his head with one hand is still known 2,600 years later?
My guess is “cool” or maybe “nice”.
Possibly even “sweet”…“For real? Damn, I need to chisel my life story into all the rocks around here so they know all about the awesome Bybon, son of Phola!”
And then he turns out to be an asshole or something. Should have stuck with the single rock…
He might be, but his assholery would be remembered for all time! Kinda like Ea-Nasir and his shitty copper.
From all we know, this was his exact sense of humor. But than again, what do we really know about him
Hell yeah. Even though odds are good he was a dick
That’s completely fake. They did not have pounds back then. Not sure about stones either, tbh.
