Communication and why it's important

Since humans were created they used some form of communication so that they could do things like group hunting and trading, so they invented the alphabet and languages so they could talk. As humans became more advanced they created paper and writing utensils. Hundreds of years later some smart man invented the telegraph. A few years later another man invented the phone for quick easy communication.

The alphabet was a very important step to our civilization. The alphabet was one of the earliest forms of communication. It is unknown where the first alphabet was first made but it is believed that the ancient Egyptians made a alphabet for communication so that they could help each other in creating the great structures we call the pyramids. Years later other civilizations began to create their own alphabets so they could also communicate with each other. I am amazed with how our ancestors created the alphabet.

Writing was a big step in our civilization. Writing was used so that our ancestors could communicate without having to go talk to them. They could just write what they wanted to say and when the other person saw it they would understand. It is believed that the earliest attempt to write was in Mexico 3200 BC. It is also believed that a few hundred years later the ancient Egyptians successfully created a writing system called hieroglyphs. Many years later other civilizations made their own writing systems. Writing was and still is used frequently. I am happy that our ancestors invented writing.

Telegraphy was a huge step in our civilization. The telegraph was used for long distance communication. There were many attempts to create a telegraph. Many worked but were too complicated. Years later a man named Samuel Morse created a simple system called Morse Code. It used a bell to make the sound. The telegraph was used during the Civil War and for a long period of time after. The telegraph really helped our ancestors.

The telephone is also a great invention. People still frequently use it for quick easy communication. Communication was a wonderful invention. I am using an invention right now, writing. So many interesting people with the imagination to think of the ideas and the perseverance to work until they either have proof it can not be done or finish what they started. These are the men who make our world great
