The first known writing systems began to develop in the early Bronze Age, starting around 3500-3000 BCE. This period was characterized by the emergence of organized societies and the development of complex social structures, which led to the need for a system of written communication. Some of the earliest known writing systems developed during this time include cuneiform in Mesopotamia and hieroglyphics in ancient Egypt.
