Gold Fluted Bowl found at Olympia, Greece with text. Thanks to Angela O'Brien @GrecianGirly for the lead.
The text is actually Alphabetic Akkadian and not Greek. I date it to 500 BCE. It describes the two power classes of the Ancient Pagan Paradigm (life class and the magical motion class). It mentions the connective motion hermaphrodite deity Thu (Athu, Athena) along with the magical emotion owls (Athenian owls). Olympia is just north of Athens. The text also mentions the life manifestation god of Yahu (Yahweh). It translates as:
1. Life-Threads are due to ritual-roast-offerings. Emotional-energy is activating the life-manifestations. Those are being activated by considerations (focused emotions).
2. Nourish Thu's goodness.
Give tribute to the seers. Emotion-owls are energizing Yahu's fertility-fluids
