About this listen

 Who inspired that first human to use symbols to write the first words? The Architects of the Word follows the mysterious entities of energy, introduced in The Architects of Sentience, as they inspire the spark of culture in humankind. The ancient Sumerians of the Middle East are credited with being the first culture to use symbols to form words on clay tablets. The Sumerians influenced the Babylonians and later Egyptians. During a dig at the ruins of ancient temple, a mysterious clay tablet was found that apparently made no sense when it was transcribed. One archeologist finally noticed some odd marks at the bottom of the tablet. When he used those seemingly innocuous symbols to read the tablet, they revealed possibly the world’s first political satire — “The Great Fatted Bull” — about a cruel king who eventually gets his comeuppance. This Ebook tells the story of two brothers -- one, The Great Fatted Bull -- who struggle for control of one of Sumeria's ancient kingdoms. Their stories were recorded for posterity by the keepers of knowledge -- the lowly scribes. Fantasy Historical
