About Cuneiform
Cuneiform was developed around 3400 BCE by the Sumerians in Mesopotamia. It evolved from earlier pictographic writing and was used for record-keeping, administrative purposes, literature, and legal codes. The script spread to other cultures and languages over the centuries, becoming one of the earliest known systems of writing.
Strengths of Cuneiform included its versatility in recording various languages and its ability to capture complex information. Weaknesses involved its complexity and difficulty in learning and writing. Competitors included the Egyptian hieroglyphs and later the Phoenician alphabet, which were simpler and more accessible.
