Beschreibung:
In Mesopotamia, clay tablets were used as a writing medium, especially for writing in CuneiformCuneiform characters were imprinted on a wet clay tablet with a stylus often made of reed. Once written upon, the tablets were dried in the sun or air, remaining fragile. The text on clay tablets took the forms of myths, fables, essays, hymns, proverbs, epic poetry, laws, plants, and animals. What these clay tablets allowed was for individuals to record who and what was significant. An example of these great tales was The Epic of Gilgamesh.
