Abstract

Blogging is one of the discoveries that changed the face of history and transferred our knowledge of the ancient history of Iraq from the hieroglyphs of assumptions in prehistoric times (the Stone Ages) to the historical ages, and this happened in the period called Proto-Historic. As the Sumerians recorded the first letter in the Sumerian city of Warka, south of Mesopotamia, approximately 3500 years BC. or chump. As a result of using such verticality of the reed, the writing became similar to nails. That is why it was called Cuneiform, which is a Latin name from the term ((Cuneus), meaning (nail), and from (Form), meaning (form). It was also written on stone, metal, and wood, and this was known through what was found It is found in archaeological sites such as statues, sculptures, obelisks, seals, cylinders, and other archaeological remnants that were written on it.Cuneiform writing was not discovered in the beginning in this way, and it did not reach its final stage directly, but it went through several stages: the Pictographic stage, then the symbolic ideogram, and finally the stage Phonetic. As for the direction in which it was written, it was from top to bottom, then it became written from left to right. As for how to solve the cuneiform line, the steps for that lasted a long period of time, during which many travelers, amateurs, and foreign archaeologists made strenuous efforts to learn its secrets and how to read it. As a result of this discovery, Assyrian science was announced as a science taught in international institutes and universities. Blogging in this line can be used for tourism marketing at the present time.
