Interesting. What's the market for them?

Museums (for education, handling boxes etc.), Roman to C15th re-enactors,
reconstructed period houses and anyone just curious. It's not a mass market
:-)

And can you read and write
cuneiform?

You don't need to, in Britain cursive script was always used.

I like that :-)

So did we. So did the customer :-)
