A recently uncovered stele in Escúllar, Almería, Spain, has sparked excitement among historians and linguists. The inscriptions on the stone bear striking similarities to both Libyo-Berber and Tifinagh scripts, suggesting a possible connection to the ancient Amazigh presence in the Iberian Peninsula.
While the language and precise dating of the stele remain uncertain, experts believe this discovery could provide valuable insights into historical interactions between North Africa and southern Spain. If confirmed as an early form of Tifinagh, the finding would further highlight the deep roots of Amazigh culture beyond North Africa.
Researchers are now working to analyze the inscriptions, hoping to unlock new knowledge about the ancient peoples who once inhabited the region.
