Aperçu

How did mankind first learn to record his thoughts in writing? And why? These are some of the questions we will look at in this whirlwind tour through 4000 years of history as people of the Middle East developed the first forms of communication. 

Détails

Join us as we travel from clay tokens to Mesopotamian cuneiform and Egyptian hieroglyphics, and eventually, thank goodness, the alphabet that we use today.  Something to think about next time you sit down with a good book, or perhaps an e-reading tablet that is not so different than our ancient ancestors.
