I was thinking about something along imilar lines the other day.

I found a box in the attic with a ream of paper I bought years ago in the US, made by native 'muricans using a trad recipe. They used tree bark from a particular tree, which when treated in a particular way, for the right length of time etc, produced some really nice flat sheets of durable writing paper, all covered in swirly patterns.

It got me to thinking about how the Vidolanda tabelts were solid wood, and they barely survived 2000yrs, so if there ever had been tree-bark paper, it'd probably have gone the distance long ago.

I envisage a sheet of ancient bark-paper covered in cup and ring marks, clearly explaining their meaning by an adjacent translation into ancient greek.
