Keep your receipt for the warranty, still good after 200 years?

Oy Vey!

One of the lines ends with the name ‘Shimon’ followed by a Hebrew letter mem, which stands for ‘money’ .. Mem is for money. Glad some folks are willing to think translingually! 🙃
(?ממון? מטבע)
In any case, it looks like there's a lot of wine on that list. What do I know; it's only what it looks like.
The researchers believe that "the everyday life of the inhabitants of Jerusalem who resided here 2,000 years ago is expressed in this simple object.”
Secrets revealed.

Maybe מָנֶה, if they were dealing with some serious shekels.

Based on appearance, probably scribed with a sharp flake of stone...

Interesting you should bring that up, because there's always a pun:
As 1/60 of a talent, a mena would be a "small taste of".

I wondered because I figured it would represent some specific currency/unit. That business about "mem is for money" is kind of vague.
