Do any of the markings match up with Aurebesh text seen elsewhere in the OT?

Wonder if they just left it out there in the sand dunes when filming wrapped? ;)

The markings on the capsule are completely new and don't match up with any Star Wars written language, which is part of why this picture excites me so much; was this supposed to be the original Star Wars language, before Aurebesh?

It would be cool to go out and see it. A thing that size would likely be covered by now, though. Though it's so small that it could also be sitting in the archives at Skywalker Ranch now.
