Original Title: TIL the oldest known tablet inscribed with the Ten Commandments sold for $5.04 million. The roughly 1,500-year-old stone was discovered in 1913, but went on to be used as paving outside someone's house for three decades until a scholar bought it in 1943 and recognized its historic importance.
