A second long Lemnian inscription is found in the theatre at Hephaistia

In 2009 Italian excavations at Hephaistia on Lemnos find a stone inscription in the same language as the Kaminia stele, published by Carlo de Simone the same year; it shows Lemnian was a living local language, not a lone import.
