The development of written language is believed to have started with simple pictograms and symbols, representing objects or ideas, which later evolved into more complex writing systems. Early civilizations in Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, and Mesoamerica independently developed writing systems to record information, communicate, and maintain records. Over time, these systems became more standardized and refined, leading to the diverse scripts used today.
