Wyrick, D. A Representation of the Two Stones with the Characters Inscribed Upon Them, That were Found by D. Wyrick, during the Summer of 1860.

A peculiar work dealing with ancient stones with Hebrew inscriptions, including an abridgment of the Ten Commandments, unearthed in a sinkhole in North America by the author during a dig in 1860. At a loss to explain his find, Wyrick declares; “Would it not require a very profound scholar in Hebrew to make such an abridgment of the Hebrew Decalogue with foreign characters…?” Though shortly after their supposed"discovery" the inscriptions were exposed as a hoax, it must be stated for the sake of objectivity, in some quarters at least, discussion continues to this day whether the inscriptions are authentic or fabricated.
