(New) Tablet from the Mycenaean Hinterland

This is not "new" in many senses of the word; I seem not to have been paying attention when the news came out last spring, and, of course, the thing itself isn't exactly new, either, being from the Late Bronze Age. This is the NYTimes article, where for some reason my Greek professor Cynthia Shelmerdine makes only a cameo appearance, although this little things does seem to be her baby.
I will also post another link to a National Geographic article about the tablet.
