Cuneiform is completely made up of a shape similar to a triangle with a straight line coming out of one of the points. the entire alphabet and all the words are made up of different combinations of this one symbol. It was made by pressing a wedge-shaped tool into soft clay or a similar material, and then allowing it to dry. Because the alphabet was so complicated, only specially-trained scribes knew how to write.
