Cuneiform Inscription

Cuneiform inscription refers to the ancient writing system used by the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, and Assyrians in Mesopotamia. Developed around 3200 BCE, it involved pressing a reed stylus into soft clay tablets to create wedge-shaped characters. This script was used for various purposes, including documenting trade, laws, literature, and administrative records. Cuneiform is one of the earliest forms of writing and played a crucial role in the development of human civilization, enabling the preservation and communication of complex ideas across generations. Today, it offers valuable insights into ancient cultures and languages.
