Brick Cylinders of Kadatheron

The Cylinders of Kadatheron are ancient artifacts from Kadatheron. They are stone cylinders covered with hieroglyphic writing. These texts deal primarily with the history of the land of Mnar, especially as it relates to the pre-human city of Ib. They also include information on the Sarnath-sigil and tell the tale of the wizard Ilathos who went to speak with the High Priest of Leng (though the ending of that story has been effaced). Another section provides the history and ruling dynasties of Kadatheron itself.
The Cylinders of Kadatheron first appeared in the story The Doom that Came to Sarnath (H.P. Lovecraft, 1919).
