The Sumerian language is one of the earliest known written languages. The proto-literate period of Sumerian writing spans c. 3,300 to 3,000 BC. In this period, records are purely logographic, with no linguistic or phonological content.The oldest document of the proto-literate period is the Kish tablet.he cuneiform script is adapted to Akkadian writing from the mid third millennium.
