The tablets from Mount Sinai, traditionally believed to have been given to Moses containing the Ten Commandments, are not known to exist today. According to biblical accounts, these tablets were broken by Moses in anger when he saw the Israelites worshiping a golden calf. While some religious traditions hold that a second set of tablets was created, there is no archaeological evidence to confirm the existence of these original or replacement tablets.

Why did Moses got angry with his people adoring the golden calf upon his descent from Mt Sinai when the Ten commandments were still unknown to them?

The people had lost patience with Moses as he had been on the mount a long time communing with God. Though the Lord had brought them out of the land of Egypt they were still had within them the memory of the Gods of Egypt. Rather than wait for the return of Moses some build an idle to worship rather than stand around idly. Aaron could have stopped them but gave in to their demands. Moses on his return was of course angry at the lack of faith his people were showing and had all of the instigators killed. He broke the tablets containing the Higher Law of Commandments and instead of God re writing them he gave the people a lesser law to live by.
