Sarcophagus of Antigonus I. Iznik Archaeology Museum.

A post on Archaeology World shares the discovery of a 2,500 year-old love letter found in Iznik, formerly ancient Nicaea. Engraved on the sarcophagus of Antigonus I, one of the generals of Alexander the Great, the message reveals the writer’s grief over Antigonus I’s death.

As with any ancient discovery, there’s a risk that some real shit could be unleashed. What spirits have traveled to the future with that missive? How could it influence someone in the present? What’s the story behind the letter? What happens next?
