__Sumer Writing__

W riting is one of many things the Sumerians invented, such as the wheel and the plow and the calander and many more. Writing has been reformed into a way we can understand today. Now we use e-mail, proper words and have the internet. I wouldn't really like it if the internet was written in pictograms that the sumerians used in 5300 BCE. Pictograms are pictures that represent words such as bread is an upside down triangle with a line a little ways down from the top, and bird is a drawing of a duck, and a water is two wiggly lines, etc. Pictograms were used everwhere because it is very important.
