Sure, maybe. . .
That's an awfully extreme and rediculous analogy that offers nothing more than mockery.

Did Roman society utilize metal plates for record keeping purposes? Are there other ancient cultures that predate Roman civilization that used metal plates for record keeping -say in asia, india etc.? Was the Roman civilization a culmination of ancient modern civilized progress and growth?
