Cuneiform is one of the oldest languages there is. In fact the latest text found was in C.E 75. The meaning of the word "Cuneiform" is wedge shape. Since this language was recorded on clay by using a reed shape tool that made wedges, it makes sense. Many people believe that Cuneiform was created to record the sounds of a language. The way they did this was by putting together shapes and then assigning those shapes a sound.
