History

Sumerian is the language of ancient Sumer and a language isolate that was spoken in Mesopotamia, during the 3rd millennium BC.

The Sumerians were one of the earliest urban societies to emerge in the world, in Southern Mesopotamia more than 5000 years ago. They developed a writing system whose wedge-shaped strokes would influence the style of scripts in the same geographical area for the next 3000 years

Cuneiform is a system of writing first developed by the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia c. 3500-3000 BCE. It is considered the most significant among the many cultural contributions of the Sumerians and the greatest among those of the Sumerian city of Uruk which advanced the writing of cuneiform c. 3200 BCE.  

The name comes from the Latin word cuneus for 'wedge' owing to the wedge-shaped style of writing. In cuneiform, a carefully cut writing implement known as a stylus is pressed into soft clay to produce wedge-like impressions that represent word-signs (pictographs) and, later, phonograms or `word-concepts' (closer to a modern-day understanding of a `word'). All of the great Mesopotamian civilizations used cuneiform until it was abandoned in favour of the alphabetic script at some point after 100 BCE, including:

The only one to be close to a stylus is a c) reed pencil, since the rest was still not invented 5000 years ago.

Jages and Supply and Demand
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1. How do we decide how much each person in society should be paid?

The highest paying jobs in society typically have a combination of two factors: 1) they are highly specialized, that is to say, difficult to perform, 2) they have a high demand.

Two examples are: medical specialists, and CEOs.

Why do some jobs receive high wages while others do not? Do wages

reflect what types of jobs our society values?

Jobs that receive higher wages, again, are either more difficult to do, or have a higher demand, or are more scarce.

This does reflect in part what types of jobs our society values, however, not all high paying jobs are well valued, and some low paying jobs enjoy prestige.

2. Using what you know about supply and demand and labor, explain

how changes in supply and demand couple impact employment and jobs

In the current economic crisis, we have seen a reduction in the demand for jobs, because most firms are either selling less, or have simply gone out of business.

This has led to higher unemployment, since many people have been fired and cannot find new places where to be hired.
