I have heard of the Dropa Stones. The description I got was "they are like stone phonograph records, a flat platter with a hole in the middle and continuous spiral grooves from the hole to the outer edge, and the grooves have tiny characters like writing in them".
They seem to be linked to some cave paintings at Baian Kara Ula. Those paintings show a figure in what appears to be a space or diving suit with a helmet with two antennae - looks like Martin in "My Favorite Martian" - and what looks like a saucer shaped airship with a jet and smoke emerging from the center of the bottom side of it. The entire tableax reminds me of the cover of a 1950's science fiction novel what with the "My Favorite Martian" antenna and the rocket-powered flying saucer.
So far as I know, the hieroglyphics contained within the stone grooves have never been deciphered, although there have been a few spurious claims to have deciphered them.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
