The Alphabet
The first alphabet was invented by the Egyptians around 2700 BCE. The characters are called unilaterals, but it's unknown which character was invented first. The Egyptians didn't use unilaterals alone though; they mixed them with other symbols called bilaterals, trilaterals, and pictograms. The Phoenicians were the first to use a purely unilateral (consonantal) alphabet, but it is not known when they started, except that it was in existence prior to 1050 BCE.
The Phoenician alphabet was the inspiration for the Greek alphabet.
The Sumerians (4000-2500) BC created Cuneiform. They used a stylus to write on soft clay. [The Phoenicians created 22 symbols of the alphabet- which was later adopted by the Greeks who added vowels (it became the alphabet we use today) ]
