A Sumerian clay tablet from around 3200 B.C. is inscribed in wedgelike cuneiform with a list of professions. A clay tag from around 3200 B.C. has signs that scholars call proto-cuneiform.
Begging the question:
Do we know conclusively if the first language was spoken or written? Early man probably grunted warnings and musings - but drawing numbers and icons in the sand would have been more specific and definitive. Just pondering;0
The clay tag from around 3200 B.C. clearly shows a space ship in the background with an alien on the right pointing a sharp instrument at a cow. First recorded account of cattle mutilation!!!
I predict the internet will have as great an impact on mankind as did the invention of writing and the movable type.
It represents the first time in human history that instantaneous and unhindered independent communications networking is available at any time to anyone who wants it.
That is powerful.
Early Man invented writing.
Early Woman invented talking.
'Kilroy Was Here';-)
I wonder what it means?
