we presented

Today in Western Civ class, we presented our projects about the movie. Our group had the writing part of it. It was an easy project, and was fun. my project had many facts. The interesting one’s were Evolved around 5,000 years ago. Appeared in a region of the Fertile Crescent called Sumer. An elaborate system of symbols known as cuneiform was developed to permanently record official accounts on clay tablets. It didn't take long for cuneiform to be used for political and historical events as well. The technology was invented to write down events  and inform people. Also written down for social, and private actions in society.. Important events and stories were recorded using writing, like the first epic, “The Epic of Gilgamesh”. Writing was also used for political events. Whenever societies which were illiterate clashed with societies who were literate, the literate societies were the victors. Entire agricultural societies were transformed upon writing being introduced. Mr Schick said that our presentation will be on the test for sure because it was the most important.
