A History Changer: This is the OLDEST Writing

System in The World and predates Ancient

Sumerian Writing!
Akhenaten, who was known before the fifth year of his reign as Amenhotep IV was
a Pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt who ruled for 17 years. He was the
father of Tutankhamun, one of the most famous Ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. Many
consider Akhenaten as one of the worlds greatest and most influential religious
innovators. Many consider him as the first monotheist in all of history, a precursor to
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Muhammad as prophets who worshiped one God.

However, before Akhenaten, many strange Pharaohs ruled over Ancient

Egypt.
One of the most important ancient texts that can tell us more about this time in history
is the Papyrus of Turin, which lists all the Pharaohs who ruled over Ancient Egypt.
However, the most prominent feature of the Danube Valley Civilization is without a
doubt, the controversial written language they developed. Even though many
archaeologists believe the Danube Valley script isnt a written language but a
collection of geometric shapes, others believe that this is one of the first writings
systems to ever appear on Earth. In fact, if this theory is proven to be accurate, it
would mean that it is the OLDEST written language ever found on Earth, predating
the well-known Sumerian Writings in Mesopotamia and the Dispilo Tablet which
according to researchers dates back to 5360 BC. According to Harald Haarmann, a
German linguistic and cultural scientist, says the Danube script predates the
Sumerian writings and should be considered as the oldest writing in the world. The
inscriptions in tablets found from the Danube Valley Civilization date back to at least
5,500 BC, and the mysterious symbols that make up the written language are yet to
be deciphered.

The symbols seen on numerous tablets from the Danube civilization are also called
the Vinca symbols and are found across multiple archaeological sites across the
Danube Valley areas. The symbols have been found to be recorded on pottery,
figurines, spindles and other clay artifacts.

A History Changer
The fact that the writing system developed by the Danube Valley Civilization is the
oldest in the world is definitely a history changer. Not only is there evidence to
support this theory present on clay tablets, but researchers have found thousands
of artifacts with the Danube Valley Script on countless figurines. To date,
researchers have found approximately 700 different characters in the Danube Valley
Script, a number similar to the characters used in Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs.

The fact that mainstream archeologists suggest these symbols are not a writing
system but mere decorations comes from the same inability to explain other findings
across the globe. It seems that every time, something that challenges mainstream
views on history and development of the human race is found, mainstream scholars
close their eyes and decide to ignore it.

However, there are scholars who also suggest that the Danube Valley Civilization
actually copied the symbols and writing system of Ancient Mesopotamia, claims that
are absurd when you realize that some clay tablets from the Danube Valley
Civilization are older than many clay tablets from ancient Mesopotamia.

If anything, this incredible ancient civilization surely deserves a more appropriate

study and scientific approach, one which could teach us a thing or two about ancient
civilizations on Earth. Haarmanns proposal deserves a better look at what could
prove to be one of the most important and controversial ancient civilizations on Earth.
