I think you should never want to get out of bed in and not do anything because you could do something truly amazing and the best part of that is you get to go to bed and say you have done something good. I will be honest with you I am not really good at that. Never ever give up at your dreams and I have learned that. Always stick at your dream and never let anyone tell you who you are because they want you to be like them. Always be who you are.

Sumarian Alphabet October 14, 2011

Posted by Ben's Backflip Blog in : Uncategorized , 1 comment so far

My  big question is how  the Sumerians created the alphabet.  I wanted to know how they started to put characters on a clay tablet. Also, I wanted to know how they  based the characters from. I was interested  in learning about how the Sumerians created the alphabet. I learned that only boys could become scribes and attend scribe school.

Cuneiform means wedge shape in Latin. The stylus was a tool to write cuneiform it was made out of reed. This system was used to keep track of the goods given to the temple. Then it was used to keep track of the economy. With this system, the Sumerians could keep track of the money and goods.

This is a topic I picked because I wanted to know how  the alphabet was created. The Sumerian alphabet is one of the first alphabets used and that is how Geologists  found the Sumerian civilization. I never knew this but after a long time, the language became more abstract or simple over the years.  They created the alphabet to keep track of the goods originally.
