The Phoenicians did not use cuneiform because they developed their own writing system, known as the Phoenician alphabet. This alphabet was easier to use and suited the needs of the Phoenician traders and merchants. Cuneiform was associated with Mesopotamian cultures, and the Phoenicians had their own distinct cultural identity.
Cuneiform is an ancient writing system of wedge-shaped characters used in Mesopotamia, while the Phoenician alphabet is a simpler script with 22 consonant symbols developed by the Phoenicians. Cuneiform was used for several languages and included syllabic and logographic elements, while the Phoenician alphabet was primarily consonantal and served as the basis for many modern alphabets.
The Phoenicians developed an alphabet of 22 symbols because it allowed for simpler and more efficient writing compared to cuneiform, which had hundreds of characters. The Phoenician alphabet was easier to learn and use, making it ideal for trade and communication purposes.
