The letters in the first word can spell out 'slave' You really can't publish anything these days without focusing on the evils of slavery.

The 1st word spelled is “slave.”
The second word, according to BLM is “reparations.”
However, its clear that we have a missing letter from modern alphabets, to cover the “th” sound we make, which normally we would now simply be pronounced as an “f” sound.
Revising the whole alphabet show will make it a real “mofer thucker.”

Interesting article. The transition from hieroglyphic symbols to an alphabet is fascinating.
The article says...
"They aren't sure what the words mean, though they may be part of two names, the [research] team said...The letters in the first word can spell out 'slave', though this doesn't mean that the inscription refers to an enslaved person. The researchers noted that the surviving letters are likely part of longer words, and the combination of those letters that spell out "slave" are used in many other words."
Well, that reference to "slave" is enough for me! Grind those fragments into dust. Our pastoral WOKE world cannot tolerate any references to slaves, slavery, or the people who owned slaves. White racism must be crushed wherever it is found!

Doesn't the name Obediah mean "slave of Yahweh"?
OBD NPT = "slave of National Public Television" (they were way ahead of their time).

an alphabet - was found in Egypt and dates to the 12th dynasty (around 1981
BCE BC to 1802
BCE BC), with more examples being found from around 1300
BCE BC…the barley was grown in around 1450
BCE BC.
