Best Answer

Egyptians started to write because merchants needed a way to write things down (example: how mant sheeps they had bought and sold). It would've been very difficult to draw all the sheep that they bought and sold that month.

Religious leaders needed a way to count their money and write down how much they made and how much they spent.

The government needed a way to write down taxes.

Recent findings, tiny bars of bone, wood and ivory bearing the names of kings, queens and high officials, have been dated to 3250 BC, with C14 method. Probably, the Egyptian writing is more ancient.
