Only five independent writing systems have been produced in the ENTIRE human history. Sumerian, Egyptian, Harappan, Mayan, and Chinese. Among them only Chinese has survived into modern age. All others have long since ceased to be functional. From Egyptian and Sumerian, the proto-Canaanite was developed in 1750 BC and became precursor of all the alphabetic languages. Of these five writing systems, The Mayans evolved the only true written system native to the Americas and were masters of mathematics.The Maya writing system (often called hieroglyphics from a vague superficial resemblance to the Egyptian writing, to which it is not related) was a combination of phonetic symbols and ideograms. It is the only writing system of the Pre-Columbian New World that can completely represent spoken language to the same degree as the written language of the old world. The decipherment of the Maya writings has been a long laborous process. Bits of it were first deciphered in the late 19th and early 20th century (mostly the parts having to do with numbers, the calendar, and astronomy), but major breakthroughs came starting in the 1960's and 1970's and accelerated rapidly thereafter, so that now the majority of Maya texts can be read nearly completely in their original languages.With the decipherment of the Maya script it was discovered that the Maya were one of the few civilizations where artists attached their name to their work. More information on these five original writing systems can be found in the related links section below.
