Cuneiform, one of the earliest systems of writing developed in ancient Mesopotamia, revolutionized communication and record-keeping. It allowed for the documentation of laws, trade transactions, and historical events, which facilitated more complex societal structures and governance. This innovation also enabled the preservation of knowledge and culture, contributing to advancements in administration, literature, and education. Ultimately, cuneiform helped transform Mesopotamian society from primarily oral traditions to a literate civilization with a rich cultural legacy.

What was the most likely reason why the Mesopotamian people created cuneiform?
Cuneiform developed from a picture based writing method by a process of simplification of the original pictographs into 3 simple marks made by a (wedge shaped) reed stylus into soft clay; the marks are vertical, horizontal and diagonal. This simplification means the marks can be made reliably and quickly and this enabled people to begin using writing to both underpin business and to communicate one with another (as we do today).
