History of communication
The history of communication dates back to prehistorictimes, with significant changes in communication tech-nologies (media and appropriate inscription tools) evolv-ing in tandem with shifts in political and economic sys-tems, and by extension, systems of power. Communica-tion can range from very subtle processes of exchange,to full conversations and mass communication. Humancommunication was revolutionized with Origin of lan-guage|speech approximately 500,000 years ago. Symbolswere developed about 30,000 years ago,
The imperfection of speech, which nonetheless allowedeasier dissemination of ideas and stimulatedinventions,eventually resulted in the creation of new forms of com-munications, improving both the range at which peoplecould communicate and the longevity of the information.All of those inventions were based on the key concept ofthe symbol
The oldest known symbols created with the purpose ofcommunication through time are thecave paintings, aform ofrock art, dating to theUpper Paleolithic. Just asthe small child first learns to draw before it masters morecomplex forms of communication, soHomo sapiensfirst
attempts at passing information through time took theform of paintings. The oldest known Cave Painting isthat of theChauvet Cave, dating to around 30,000BC.[1]
Though not wellstandardized, those paintings containedincreasing amounts of information: Cro-Magnonpeoplemay have created the firstcalendaras far back as 15,000years ago.[2] The connection between drawing and writingis further shown bylinguistics: in theAncient EgyptandAncient Greecethe concepts and words of drawing andwriting were one and the same (Egyptian: 's-sh', Greek:'graphein').[3]
1 Petroglyphs
For more details on this topic, seePetroglyphs.The next step in the history of communications is
petroglyphs, carvings into a rock surface. It took about20,000 years for homo sapiens to move from the firstcave paintings to the first petroglyphs, which are datedto around 10,000BC.[4]
It is possible that the humans of that time used some otherforms of communication, often formnemonicpurposes

and we can only speculate about their existence based onour observation of still existing 'hunter-gatherer' culturessuch as those ofAfricaorOceania.[4]

for example be orderedchronologically.
Pictograms were used by various ancientculturesall overthe world since around 9000 BC, when tokens markedwith simple pictures began to be used to label basic farmproduce, and become increasingly popular around 6000-
5000 BC.They were the basis ofcuneiform[5] andhieroglyphs, andbegan to develop into logographic writing systemsaround5000 BC.
3 Ideograms
For more details on this topic, seeIdeograms.Pictograms, in turn, evolved into ideograms, graphical

ing. The text readsNujjinen wsq Our father / in heaven
symbols that represent anidea. Their ancestors, the pic-tograms, could represent only something resembling theirform: therefore a pictogram of a circle could represent asun, but not concepts like 'heat', 'light', 'day' or 'Great Godof the Sun'. Ideograms, on the other hand, could conveymore abstract concepts, so that for example an ideogramof two sticks can mean not only 'legs but also a verb 'towalk'.
Because some ideas are universal, many different culturesdeveloped similar ideograms. For example, an eye witha tear means 'sadness inNative Americanideograms inCalifornia, asit doesfor the Aztecs, the early Chinese andtheEgyptians.
Ideograms were precursors oflogographic writing sys-temssuch asEgyptian hieroglyphsandChinese charac-ters.
Examples of ideographical proto-writing systems,thought not to contain language-specific information,include theVinca script (see alsoTrtria tablets) and
the early Indus script. In both cases there are claimsof decipherment of linguistic content, without wideacceptance.
4 Writing
For more details on this topic, seeHistory of writing.The oldest-known forms of writing were primar-

guage, listing gifts to the high priestess ofAdabon the occasion
of her election. One of the earliest examples of human writing.
ily logographic in nature, based on pictographic andideographicelements. The earliest known form of writ-
ing (mostly made up of runes) is called futhark. Mostwriting systems can be broadly divided into three cate-gories: logographic, syllabicand alphabetic(or segmen-tal); however, all three may be found in any given writingsystem in varying proportions, often making it difficult tocategorise a system uniquely.
The invention of the firstwriting systemsis roughly con-temporary in with the beginning of theBronze Ageinthe lateNeolithicof the late 4000 BC. The first writingsystem is generally believed to have been invented in pre-historicSumerand developed by the late3000s BCintocuneiform. Egyptian hieroglyphs, and the undeciphered
Proto-Elamite writing system and Indus Valley script alsodate to this era, though a few scholars have questioned theIndus Valleyscripts status as a writing system.
The original Sumerian writing system was derived froma system ofclay tokensused to representcommodities.By the end of the 4th millennium BC, this had evolvedinto a method of keeping accounts, using a round-shapedstylusimpressed into soft clay at different anglesfor recordingnumbers. This was gradually augmentedwith pictographic writing using a sharp stylus to indi-cate what was being counted. Round-stylus and sharp-stylus writing was gradually replaced about 2700-2000
BC by writing using a wedge-shaped stylus (hence thetermcuneiform), at first only forlogograms, but devel-oped to includephonetic elements by the 2800 BC. About

2600 BC cuneiform began to represent syllables of spo-kenSumerian language.
Finally, cuneiform writing became a general purposewriting system forlogograms,syllables, and numbers. Bythe 26th century BC, this script had been adapted to an-
other Mesopotamian language,Akkadian, and from thereto others such asHurrian, andHittite. Scripts similarin appearance to this writing system include those forUgariticandOld Persian.
TheChinese scriptmay have originated independently ofthe Middle Eastern scripts, around the 16th century BC(early Shang Dynasty), out of a late neolithic Chinese sys-tem of proto-writing dating back to c. 6000 BC. Thepre-Columbian writing systems of theAmericas, includ-ingOlmecandMayan, are also generally believed to havehad independent origins.
4.1 Alphabet
For more details on this topic, seehistory of alphabet.The first purealphabets(properly, "abjads", mapping

single symbols to single phonemes, but not necessarilyeach phoneme to a symbol) emerged around 2000 BC inAncient Egypt, but by then alphabetic principles had al-ready been incorporated intoEgyptian hieroglyphsfor a
millennium (seeMiddle Bronze Age alphabets).By 2700 BC Egyptian writing had a set of some22 hi-eroglyphsto represent syllables that begin with a single
consonantof their language, plus a vowel (or no vowel) tobe supplied by the native speaker. These glyphs were usedas pronunciation guides for logograms, to write grammat-ical inflections, and, later, to transcribe loan words andforeign names.
However, although seemingly alphabetic in nature, theoriginal Egyptian uniliterals were not a system and werenever used by themselves to encode Egyptian speech. IntheMiddle Bronze Agean apparently alphabetic sys-tem is thought by some to have been developed in centralEgyptaround 1700 BC for or bySemiticworkers, butwe cannot read these early writings and their exact natureremain open to interpretation.
Over the next five centuries this Semitic alphabet (reallyasyllabarylikePhoenician writing) seems to have spreadnorth. All subsequent alphabets around the world with thesole exception of KoreanHangulhave either descended
from it, or been inspired by one of its descendants.
5 History of telecommunication
For more details on this topic, seeHistory of telecom-munication.
Thehistory of telecommunication- the transmissionofsignalsover a distance for the purpose ofcommunication- began thousands of years ago with the use ofsmokesignalsanddrumsinAfrica,Americaand parts ofAsia.
In the 1790s the first fixedsemaphore systems emerged inEuropehowever it was not until the 1830s thatelectrical[telecommunication] systems started to appear.
