70+ legible characters should add something to our exiguous knowledge of Etruscan, assuming it is not just a funerary tablet with the usual formulae.

The state of the stone is probably the reason nobody has yet come up with a transcription.

Fingers crossed ...

Good.  Once they are through with this one, they might go back to the Liber Linteus and see if they can make out any more of that.
