The exact year cannot be determined. Cuneiform was developed by the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia c. 3500-3000 BC.. It gradually evolved from a rather simple "bookkeeping" notation based on loose clay "tokens" used in business trade over a period of several generations to a full writing system on clay tablets.
