which group developed first writing system

Answer 1

The earliest known writing systems are attributed to the Sumerians of ancient Mesopotamia, around 3100 BCE. They developed cuneiform, a system of writing using wedge-shaped marks on clay tablets. Concurrently, the ancient Egyptians developed hieroglyphs around the same time. These early writing systems were primarily used for record-keeping, administration, and religious purposes. While other cultures also developed their own forms of writing independently, Sumerians are generally recognized as the first to create a formal writing system.
