The Mesopotamian culture made important advancements in the history of written communication. Originally, they used clay tablets, on which they carved pictograms (picture-symbols of what they were trying to express) but eventually they developed a system of script called cuneiform. I enclose a link to some photos and information about these clay tablets.
I know some: the wheel, plow, sailboat, chariot, clay tablets( write on), levees, water canals.

Clay is found in the ground.
The two rivers that provided scribes with the clay used for writing were the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. These rivers, located in ancient Mesopotamia, facilitated the extraction of clay from the surrounding riverbanks, which was then shaped into tablets for writing. Scribes utilized this clay to inscribe cuneiform script, an early form of writing essential for record-keeping and communication in ancient civilizations.
Clay tablets were made out of clay that was easily found by the rivers of Tigris and Euphrates.

Cuneiform was typically made by pressing a stylus into clay, creating wedge-shaped markings. Clay tablets were then dried or fired to preserve the writing. The clay was the primary material used for cuneiform writing in ancient Mesopotamia.
