Discovering The Global Past

This chapter talked about written communication. Petroglyphys was craving on the cave wall and Petro grams were painting that told stories about the history. I thought this packet was going to be long and boring, I was kind of interested. The painting look beautiful I don't even people these days can paint like that anymore. The Sumerians started the written system. There were two writing systems Ideographic and Phonetic. Phonetic system was about sound and Ideographic was about thoughts. The writing system spread to China, Egypt, and Central America. Good thing the language was developed so people can communicate well. Papyrus was a type of paper that the Egyptians developed.
