. Why was writing useful to the Mesopotamian? |
|
Answer» The Sumerians developed the first form of writing. As Sumerian towns grew into cities, the people needed a way to KEEP track of business transactions, OWNERSHIP rights, and government records. AROUND 3300 BC the Sumerians began to use PICTURE symbols marked into clay tablets to keep their records. |
