Literature and Writing
The first language was founded by the Sumerians. Next came the Akkadian language system which dominated during the Akkadian Empire. During the 4th century, the cuneiform writing style was discovered. Cuneiform means "wedged shape". The natives of Mesopotamia used stylists to write on the tablets. This became the dominant form of literature and writing styles used during the many empires of the Mesopotamian region.
