The lower half of a single-column Hittite ritual tablet found in 2023 on the north-west slope of Büyükkale at Hattusa, 109 by 98 by 38 mm as preserved, with a thirteenth-century script. Its Hittite instructions for offering meat, bread and drink frame a recitation in the language of Kalašma, a previously unknown Luwic Anatolian language.
