Thought paper receipts were taking up too much space in your wallet?

Israeli archaeologists discovered a 2,000-year-old receipt carved into a chalkstone slab during an excavation in Jerusalem, as detailed Wednesday in a Facebook post by the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA).

Yes, their deals were literally set in stone.

Rabbi Amichai Eliyahu, the IAA’s minister of heritage, said that “the remarkable discovery” sheds light on “another aspect of Jewish life in the city from 2,000 years ago.”

The FAA discovered the ancient proof of purchase on the City of David’s Pilgrimage Road –widely considered the most important road in the city — which is now the Jerusalem Walls National Park.
