Around 3000B.C., the Sumerians created a cuneiform ("wedge-shaped") system of writing.I believe the Sumerians. In fact, cuneiform was the first written language, too. It was probably written on clay tablets with tools called stylus'. When this writing system was developed, it was used only for the subject of language arts. But later on they found a way to use it for other subjects, such as math or science.The writing form of pressing shapes and marks into clay is known as cuneiform. It was developed in the 4th millennium BCE by the Sumerian peoples of Mesopotamia. Initially cuneiform was a series of pictographs, but over time incorporated less and less characters to become more of a consonantal alphabet.

Writing on clay was an inexpensive yet permanent way of recording transactions. The fact that the Sumerians shared their land with Semitic-speaking Akkadians was important because the Akkadians had to turn the Sumerian logographic writing into phonetic syllabic writing in order to use cuneiform to represent phonetically the spoken words of the Akkadian language.
No, they just used it and according to the Hammurabi code it was alright to use it. If the Sumerians had not invented writing and language the Akkadians would have.
The writing in Babylon was the cuneiform writing.
The system of writing developed by the Sumerians was called Cuneiform.
