The Sumerians used a script called "Cuneiform" pronounced qew-nay-i-form. Cuneiform documents were impressed on wet clay by means of a blunt reed and the impressions left by the reed were wedge shaped, hence the name cuneiform from the Latin term cuneus, meaning "wedge").
When the Sumerians first developed their script, it was read from top to bottom. Around 3000 BCE they began reading from left to right and their characters rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise.
