Who invented cuneiform writing?

It was probably written on clay tablets with tools called stylus'. When this writing system was developed, it was used only for the subject of language arts. But later on they found a way to use it for other subjects, such as math or science.The writing form of pressing shapes and marks into clay is known as cuneiform. It was developed in the 4th millennium BCE by the Sumerian peoples of Mesopotamia. Initially cuneiform was a series of pictographs, but over time incorporated less and less characters to become more of a consonantal alphabet.
