Many Sumerian clay tablets written in cuneiform script have been discovered. They are not the oldest example of writing, but nevertheless represent a great advance in the human ability to write down history and create literature. Initially, pictograms were used, followed by cuneiform, and then ideograms. Letters, receipts, hymns, prayers, and stories have all been found on clay tablets.]]> 2018-01-09 05:34:13 UTC https://padlet.com/isamps2017/htfrvzft4byk/wish/219611412 Pictograms isamps2017 https://padlet.com/isamps2017/htfrvzft4byk/wish/219611472 A pictogram (pictograph) is a symbol representing a concept, object, activity, place or event by illustration.
