Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Challenging the traditional narrative, this monograph argues that the indigenous people of Mesopotamia, termed "Protoeuphratians," were the true creators of the cuneiform script, rather than the Sumerians. It explores the origins of writing systems, contrasting the use of ink on papyrus in Egypt with clay tablets in Mesopotamia. The book aims to engage both experts and general readers, inviting them to delve into the historical and linguistic intricacies of early writing. The cover features an image of Uruk's temple tower alongside a clay tablet inscribed with ancient cuneiform.
