In cuneiform, the number 300 is represented using a combination of symbols. The numeral for 300 is formed by combining the symbol for 100, which is a vertical line or a "wedge," repeated three times. This system is based on a sexagesimal (base-60) numbering system used by the ancient Sumerians and later cultures in Mesopotamia. Each symbol was impressed on clay tablets using a stylus, resulting in the distinctive wedge-shaped characters characteristic of cuneiform writing.
