Stone Tablets

Reporter Robert Jenkins interviewed archeologist Dr. Susanne Jung:

“Doctor Jung, why stone tablets? They’re a lot of work, and they’ll take an immense amount of storage space.”

“Well, Robert, ancient tablets have lasted for ages. They’re our only way to be certain.”

“Certain of what, Professor?”

“That our knowledge will be saved.”

“But, what about our holographic and digital archives?”

Susanne chuckled and shook her head.

Decades later …

Millions of alien drones came out of a wormhole—saturating Earth with lasers, ionizing radiation, and EMPs—all of human history was erased, except for piles of stone tablets buried underground.
