Archaeologists have recently found many amazing artifacts, but ancient writings are quite rare. And if we talk about incomprehensible languages, then such finds are found very few at all.
Recently, an amazing find was found in Afghanistan. These parchments have Christian symbolism on them, but the language is incomprehensible to modern science. The researchers note that these texts are unique and it is possible that they contain knowledge that will tell us about some people and events that took place thousands of years ago.
The parchments were found in the Balkh province. Historians say that this place was previously on the route of the Silk Road and various civilizations and cultures could be located in these places.
Historians say about Balkh that earlier there were many civilizations here, among which were:
- Hephthalite states
- Seleucid Empire
- Kushans
- Omeyad Caliphate and many others
As it turned out later, initially the parchments were found by people not involved in archeology. These places are famous among the people for various legends about treasures and the manuscripts were found by the so-called "black diggers", who were detained by the police, and the finds were seized.
The manuscripts were in a metal box, the size of which was 50 by 20 centimeters. On the chest there is a symbol of the Christian cross, which is not neatly attached to the parchment storage. Experts say the parchments are very ancient and the letters have a golden hue.

So far, there is only a suggestion that the parchments may refer to the times of the prosperity of the Kushan kingdom. One of the Afghan researchers notes that the language may well be artificial and has absorbed a mixture of several languages. So maybe this is a cipher that has yet to be solved?
