Glozel: the inscribed tablets of the Fradin fieldAntonin Morlet is physician (1882-1965) who excavated and published Glozel from 1925 and compiled the only corpus of its inscriptions. (1882–1965), and appears in the record of Glozel: the inscribed tablets of the Fradin field as vichy physician and amateur prehistorian who leased the field in 1925, excavated until 1936, published the finds as a Neolithic station with the world's oldest alphabet, and compiled the 1965 Corpus des inscriptions.
Four events on the site involve Morlet, from Antonin Morlet leases the field and starts excavating with Émile Fradin (24 May 1925) to Morlet publishes the Corpus des inscriptions de Glozel (1965).
Two questions rest in part on what Morlet did or said, among them “Do the Glozel signs form a writing system that records a language?”, which stands open: 4 answers, none ahead.
