A cuneiform letter from a Sumerian queen to her king, dating from the third millennium BC. The earliest language was that developed in the  fertile crescent , which is modern-day Iraq. The Sumerian and Babylonian civilizations which lived there developed a writing system known as cuneiform.editerranean. Some of the oldest non-Egyptian writing systems in the Mediterranean are still undeciphered. Likely from the Minoan civilization, these scripts, known as Linear A and Linear B, are very similar to ancient Greek and obviously had a strong influence on the development of it.
An additional possibility is the undeciphered Rongorongo script of Easter Island. It is debated whether this is true writing, and if it is, whether it is another case of cultural diffusion of writing. The oldest example is from 1851, 139 years after their first contact with Europeans.One explanation is that the script was inspired by Spain 's written annexation proclamation in 1770.t is generally agreed that true writing of language (not only numbers) was invented independently in at least two places: Mesopotamia (specifically, ancient Sumer) around 3200 BC and Mesoamerica around 600 BC.
