...the basalt tablet features just 39 different characters in 60 inscriptions written left to right across seven lines....
If it’s an unknown language, how do they know which direction it’s supposed to be read? They could have it UPSIDE DOWN!...........

I was wondering the same thing.
Also, that does not look like basalt. Our area in North Idaho and northeastern Washington is covered in a mile-thick layer of basalt. It’s a hard, dark gray-black igneous rock. It is extremely hard, too.

Something doesn’t seem right. No symbols appear to span an edge of the stone as if it was part of something larger.

The spiral at the ‘bottom’ indicates that the writer was from a different Galaxy and the circle with a dot in the center indicates that their home planet is the only one around their Sun.
The three sloped lines says there were originally three ships but two of them crashed or were lost.
The writer was the only survivor of the expedition and all he had was a knife to hunt and kill animals for food...........

Good job specifying “the country”. You got the Mormons all excited for a moment.

The region’s written records date back to a list of clergy taking part in a council in the early 6th century, coinciding with the spread of Christianity through the region. Prior to that, archeology provides evidence of settlement and metalworking dating back thousands of years, with fossils of early human relatives reaching further through time
