Cuneiform
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cuneiform is the oldest kind of writing that we know of. It was first used by the Sumerians around 3000 BC. It was written on clay with a tool made from a reed[disambiguation needed] called a stylus. Cuneiform is a wedge-shaped character made with a reed stylus and were used in writing several ancient languages. They are quite similar to pictography.
