Cuneiform=

A writing style that is comprised of different sequences and patterns of cuneus that is the Latin word for 'wedge' it is one of the earliest forms of writing, earlier versions of this could probably be the earliest writing.

The wedge shape itself was formed by the pressing in of the triangular reed stem (that was used as a stylus). It is believed that cuneiform was a development of the token iconography found on Ancient Western Asian tablets (itself a development from Bullae used for trade).

First appeared in Sumeria, Mesopotamia
