Chaldean Writings

Chaldean writings refer to the ancient scripts used by the Chaldeans, a people from southern Mesopotamia, particularly in modern-day Iraq. They primarily used cuneiform, a system of writing that involves pressing a stylus into clay tablets to create symbols. These writings document various aspects of Chaldean life, including religion, trade, and astronomy. The Chaldeans were known for their contributions to astrology and mathematics. Their texts provide valuable insights into early civilization, reflecting their culture and advancements in knowledge during the first millennium BCE.
